About Buddy

We were asked to help Buddy from council kennels: “Hi Lizzy, hope you’re ok? I’ve got a really urgent GSD boy & he’s at risk as he barked at the big boss man I was wondering if you could help him pls? This is buddy. He’s a year maybe, young and very white teeth x” Buddy was only 1 when he arrived, born in January 2022. Buddy was all teeth when he first arrived but was easily bribed with a treat! He was a typical young GSD that needed boundaries and training. “Buddy been with us a few years now and he showed us that he is not a very brave lad in the outside world. Buddy can be unsure meeting new people but it doesn’t take him long to come round. Buddy walks well on lead and will walk with other dogs so could live with a calmer larger female dog. Buddy is amazing lad and when he fully knows you he will be your friend for life and a cuddle buddy for life too.” This lad so deserves a chance of a home please!
