About Buddy
Buddy is a lovely young boy who is as affectionate as he is a smart. He is young and active, loves a good run around, chasing the ball (and returning it!) and soaks up every bit of attention. Buddy adores people whether it's a cuddle, an ear rub, or simply being near you. He’s currently loving life with an older kelpie and learning great habits and boundaries, though he’s still a playful young thing and can sometimes forget his own size and strength.
In just a few days with his foster family, he has shown he is eager to please and keen to learn. He has basic commands like sit, shake and (lie) down sorted, and now patiently waits at the door instead of bursting through the house, and knows to wait for a signal before eating. Buddy has the smarts to keep on learning good behaviours and new tricks with consistent training.
Buddy would be perfect for someone, or a family, who has the time to spend with him, challenge his clever mind, and enjoy his loving, playful nature. With the right home and people, Buddy will be the best dog ever.
If you're an active individual or family looking for a loyal and loving companion, Buddy would be a fantastic addition. He's the perfect candidate for someone who enjoys outdoor adventures and loves a snuggle at the end of the day. Buddy is eager to find a place where he can continue to grow, explore, and most importantly, be loved.

Adoption details
Please do not apply to adopt via our animals' PetRescue profile.
Follow the links below to be directed to the Wollongong City Council website, and find your preferred animal's online profile.
Once in the online profile, scroll down and click the link to complete an adoption application. Once received, a member of our team will be in touch to discuss your application and suitability for your preferred animal.
If we deem the animal to be suitable for your home and lifestyle, an in-person meet and greet may be organised. Should your meet and greet be a success, you can take your new furry friend home that day or following their desexing surgery. Our team will manage all your animal's paperwork, including ownership and vaccination documentation.
