Dog Story:
Hi everybody! My name is Buddy and I weigh in at only 32 lbs. I’m a running, jumping, kissing machine. Even a friend of my foster Dad calls me Buddy Luv!

I get to play every day with my foster sister.  We play and run in the back yard and I love to play tug of war with her or with one of my foster parents.  Their  grandson comes over often and I wrestle with him. I don’t bite or get too aggressive with him though. I feel I would be good with all kids. I do have a tendency to jump when someone comes to visit but we are working on that. 

I went to the vet the other day so that they could check me over.  You see, I have a problem with one of my back legs. When I was just a pup, I fractured my leg and my owner didn’t have it fixed properly. It doesn't bother me or slow me down but I do have a little hitch in my giddy-up. The doctor said I would be fine, but I will probably have arthritis when I get older. He also said I am at a good age and that it could be repaired. So he made a CD of my X-rays in case my next owner wanted to know what was wrong.  Everyone at the doctor’s office said I have a good demeanor (I’m not really sure what that means but my foster Dad smiled when they told him that).

The other night I overheard my foster parents talking (they thought I was asleep), and they said ABR is getting in a lot of dogs due to the economy (whatever that means). Even though they would like to keep me and I would like to stay, they need to find me a forever home. That way they can help other dogs. So I'm just waiting for a home as wonderful as this foster home to call my very own.

If you are interested in a running, jumping, kissing machine, or just a buddy to lie down and take a nap with, I am the one for you. I'm up to date on my vaccines and heartworm negative.
