About Buddy
Howdy, I'm Buddy a black Labrador and together with my brother Bear we are looking for a loving household for a fresh start in life. I am bonded to KD4443 Bear we come as the Dynamic Duo
Both Bear and I came to SAFE as an owner surrender. It was through no fault of our own, as unfortunately our owners' working conditions changed.
I am a great lover of water to the extent I even dunk my whole head in the bowl and have to come back up for air! I would definitely benefit from a doggy pool to play around in, especially during the hotter days with my dark coat.
Although Bear is great company in the yard, my world revolves around human interaction.
So a home where people are around on a regular basis for cuddles and playful interactions is desirable.
When left alone during the day I have been known to be quite the escape artist and great at digging trenches. A high fence that meets the ground, or concrete is essential as any cracks expose an opportunity to freedom that I will take advantage of!
I would greatly benefit from daily walks and lots of mental stimulation through obedience training. At present I am learning obedience, but don't fear an old dog can always learn new tricks, we just have to work together as a team 😊Compared to my brother, Bear, I am much calmer around food so treat training would be possible, but like Bear, I am also a lover of attention so should respond well to positive reinforcement.
Bear and I have big hearts with lots of love to give. And when I say LOTS, I mean LOTS! Especially when left for long periods of time as we can get over excited for attention. So, it is recommended we are adopted by a family with slightly older kids.
We are outdoor dogs, but definitely would not mind a family willing to spoil us with an indoor lifestyle. It just may take us time to understand the difference between inside and outside manners.
We are loving and loyal companions.
I CAN FLY TO PERTH!
Flying for a few hours is very important for animals in remote locations because it gives us the opportunity to be adopted. Talk to SAFE about flying me to you in Perth.
