About Buddy
Meet Buddy, a stunning 1-year-old Kelpie cross German Coolie with a heart full of potential and a spirit ready to soar. This beautiful dog has experienced minimal human interaction in his life, but since arriving at the animal shelter, Buddy has started to come out of his shell, showing glimpses of the affectionate and loving companion he is destined to be.
Buddy is an amazing friend to other dogs and has shown to be comfortable around children, making him an excellent fit for a family-oriented home. He has a gentle and kind demeanor that, with a little time and patience, will blossom into endless devotion and loyalty. Imagine spending sunny afternoons in the backyard, watching Buddy play joyfully, or taking long walks in the park where he can explore and socialize.
This remarkable pup requires a compassionate and understanding new family willing to invest in his emotional growth. While Buddy is still on his journey to full confidence, every step forward is a testament to his resilient spirit. With dedicated attention, Buddy will reveal his affectionate side fully, showering you with love and trust.
If you're looking for a loyal companion who is ready to grow and flourish by your side, Buddy might be the perfect addition to your life. Open your heart and home to Buddy, and together, you'll create a lifetime of cherished memories.

Adoption details
We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
