Buddy

Meet Buddy! ✨

This 8-year-old Lab-Husky mix is the definition of a gentle soul. Rescued from Hurricane Harvey, Buddy has a heart as big as his story. He’s super sweet, laid-back, and always up for a cuddle. Whether lounging at home or making friends at the park, he’s great with other dogs and absolutely wonderful with kids. Fully house-trained and easygoing, he’s the perfect companion for a calm and loving home.

It breaks my heart to rehome him, but with a baby on the way, I unfortunately no longer have the space or help to give him the time and attention he deserves. I’m looking for a loving home that will cherish him just as much as we do. He’s an amazing dog who deserves a family that can give him all the love and care he’s used to.

If you think you could be that home, please reach out! ❤️
