About Buddy
Meet Buddy, a 1-year, 3-month-old Border Collie/Aussie Shepherd mix who’s ready to bring his energy and affection into your life! Buddy is a large, playful boy who absolutely loves the company of other dogs, making him a great candidate to live with a canine companion. While he hasn’t had any history with cats, he’s proven to be a very friendly, outgoing dog, eager to please and make new friends.
Buddy thrives on activity and would do best in a home with space to run and play, as he has plenty of energy to burn. Daily exercise is a must for this playful pup, as well as some patience with his occasional separation stress—he just loves being around people and dogs so much!
If you’re looking for an affectionate, friendly dog who will bring fun and joy into your home, Buddy might just be the perfect match!

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.
