About Buddy
Meet Buddy! This loveable pocket rocket is looking for a place to call home.
Buddy came to SAFE Esperance from the local pound. He has settled well into foster care and loves to play with the other dogs in the house.
He can be a little fearful around new people and will bark when a new person comes to the door, but soon comes around when he knows that he's safe and they mean him no harm.
He would be better suited to a quiet adult home and thrives on stability. Buddy does love to play but can accidentally nip a little when playing. He has not been tested with cats or other small animals. He is a little timid around larger sized dogs but settles when he realises that they are friendly, and is happy to play with them.
Buddy walks well on his harness and knows some basic commands. He's very eager to please so would benefit from his new owner spending some time with him on training. He is still house training so will need an ongoing routine and gentle encouragement to continue the great progress he's made so far.
He has access to lots of dog toys in his foster home and plays happily with them. He loves to play chase round the garden with the other dogs, and will happily play fetch with a tennis ball.
Buddy also loves his 'people' and loves to snuggle on the couch for cuddle time.
Buddy's ideal home will be with someone who is home for a lot of the day. He would love a similar sized/age female dog for company depending on meet, but would also be good as an only dog providing he has lots of toys to play with and company with his human.
We recommend that he goes to an owner who will continue with positive training and socialisation as he is keen to learn, and to help him adjust to new people and situations. He will need a good sized yard to explore and be allowed inside when he wants to be. Buddy also needs to sleep inside at night.
If Buddy sounds perfect for you, please send in an adoption enquiry form and we'll be in contact.
