BUDDY - TINY BUT MIGHTY - DACHSHUND / POODLE (STANDARD) / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Dachshund / Poodle (Standard) / Mixed (medium coat). Buddy is with our partner rescue in LA and can come to NJ with an approved foster or adopter Meet Buddy — 16 pounds of sweetness just waiting for his moment. This 3-year-old doxy/poodle mix may be small in size, but he’s got a heart that’s ready to grow big for the right person. Buddy came to us after being picked up by Animal Control, where he was living alongside a couple of other dogs (who are also looking for homes). While we don’t know everything about his past, it’s clear he’s been through a lot—and he’s still holding onto hope. Buddy can be a little cautious and timid when first meeting new people, but give him a little time and patience, and you’ll see his true personality shine. Once he feels safe, he becomes playful, affectionate, and incredibly endearing. He’s the kind of dog who will bond deeply with his person and make you feel like the center of his world. At just 16 pounds, Buddy is the perfect size for cuddling on the couch, joining you for walks, or simply being your quiet little shadow around the house. What Buddy needs most is someone willing to go slow, let him build trust, and show him what love really feels like. In return, you’ll get a loyal, loving companion who will never take a second chance for granted. Buddy has waited long enough. Let’s find him the safe, happy home he deserves. Buddy is up to date on vaccines and tested negative for heartworm. H e has been spayed and has a microchip. His adoption fee is $500. Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training prior to adoption. After all these dogs have been through, they deserve a loving, committed home.
