Buford is a sweet boy who loves to love. He is very active, but also loves to snuggle. He is happy doing whatever you're doing as long as he is receiving your attention. He has never been aggressive toward any animal or human he has encountered. He will go on car rides and share his toys with you. He is shy, but not skiddish. Talks like a husky, personality of a lab, short corgi style legs.
