About Buddy
We would like to introduce you to one of the sweetest little boys you will ever meet! Buddy is a gorgeous four year old Silky Terrier mix breed, with a tiny frame, gloriously soft coat and bright, happy personality. Buddy is so affectionate and snuggly- I don’t think he has a mean bone in his body.
He appears to be house-trained, and has beautiful manners while waiting for food. Even though we are still working on ‘sit’, Buddy is so patient at meal time. He never begs for food or attempts to push in front of his foster brothers or sister. He has a healthy appetite but does not gobble down food, and once you have given him a treat he likes to keep it.
Despite his diminutive stature, Buddy has a robust personality. He loves to play with his foster brothers and their toys, especially when it involves them chasing him around the house. However, he would be equally happy as an only dog- as long as he has human company he is in heaven! Buddy has settled into our home beautifully and would fit in anywhere he is given lots of love and cuddles. His favourite position is in your lap. He would happily sit there all day if you let him.
Our children love Buddy, and he has been fantastic with them. Being such a small boy, it is important that he is not left unsupervised around young children as they could easily hurt him. He can also be scared by the loud and sudden movements that children are prone to making. Ideally, Buddy would like a home where his family will be around through the day. He also needs to be allowed inside as he wouldn’t cope being kept apart from his humans.
Buddy is a healthy, low maintenance dog. He is happy to be groomed- especially if he gets to sit in your lap while you brush him. He won’t require long or strenuous walks. Buddy will potter around the house with his people and take relaxed walks with them if they venture out. He has behaved himself perfectly when out and about, never barking or reacting to other dogs. He is simply delightful in every way.
If you think that Buddy may be the perfect addition to your family, please contact Paterson Valley Dog Rescue to learn more. Thank you for considering adopting a rescue dog.
Buddy's adoption fee is $400 and he is desexed, vaccinated, and will be lifetime registered on the completion of his 2 week trial.

Adoption details
We require an initial application over the phone or in writing and then if a dog seems a match we can arrange a meet and greet at a local park or the foster carers home. If the meet is successful we then arrange a yard check and if that is satisfactory we require full payment on picking up the dog.
We then give a 2 week trial and if in that time it is not working we will refund all but $50 for admin costs. We also require that the adopter returns our dogs back to us at any time in its lifetime (without a refund) for us to rehome.
This pet has been adopted and found love with its new family.
