About Buddy
About Me: My name is Buddy, and I would love to be your best… buddy! I am a big cuddle bug, who loves nothing more than sitting at your feet and gazing into your eyes. I have not had much exposure to the outside world, and it can be a bit overwhelming at times for me, so I need a little bit of patience and a helping hand while I build my confidence and discover all the wonderful things the world has to offer.
Home Compatibility
Children: Age 10 years +
Dogs: Could potentially live with an older, calmer dog that could show him the ropes and teach him some doggy skills
Cats: No cats
Home Alone Time
Comfortable being left: No- has separation anxiety, so will need someone who is home during the day while it is being worked on
Training and Behaviour
Car Travel: Travels well
Recall: No, will need training
Housetrained: Yes
Lead Walking: Strong on lead when excited, will need some general lead walking training
Reactivity towards Dogs: Buddy is friendly towards other dogs, but due to limited socialisation can get overly excitable, and will need help learning and practicing proper doggy skills and manners!
Buddy will need a patient and understanding home that can give him the time and training he needs, so he can live his best life and catch up on some of the things he has missed out on.

Daily Exercise Needs: Plenty of daily exercise alongside ongoing training, enrichment, and mental stimulation.
Favourite activities: Cuddling, playing, running around in secure fields, following his person around

Cuddly buddy wants nothing more than a loving home that can continue his training, and give him the life he deserves- could that be with you? If you are interested in this sweet boy, please get in touch via the rehoming form below.
