His name is Buddy, and he is three to four years old. He is neutered, has never had any health issues, and has been an active, vivacious dog. He loves to go bike riding, hiking and just walking. He does best when exercised vigorously at least once a week- which means running or bicycling. He also does well in the snow, and likes to go snowshoeing.

He has lived with three cats, and will chase if the cats give chase. However, he will lie next to them and has never been aggressive with them. He gets along with some dogs,but because of the attention he needs a single dog owner would be ideal. He loves lots of personal attention and a gentle touch. His current owner doesn’t really know how he does with children. He seems to be fine with her younger brother and sister, aged 8 and up.

He is trained to basic commands- he knows how to sit, lay down, stay,wait, and also knows “out of the kitchen” and “go get it”. He rides in the car and likes to go places in the back seat, but can get car sick on long rides. He is very well housebroken- He is both an indoor and outdoor dog- he has plenty of hair to keep him warm in this cold climate.

His family is moving this weekend and cannot take him. We are looking for either a foster home or a permanent place for this sweet guy.

Buddy has a new home….here is a note from them

K,
Just to let you know all has gone well with Buddy today.
He’s sleeping at my feet right now. Kids all came over to meet him.
Thanks for your help,
Susan
