Buddy was left abandoned for 5 long months when his owners moved away. For 5 long months Buddy waited and waited for his owners to return. Never once leaving the property except for a few times to find refuge under the neighbors porch to get out of the rain. No one knows where he slept at night but he would be there in his spot every morning. Day after day waiting for his owners to return. Never giving up hope.
Buddy is such a sweet guy. He is very loving and he seems so happy to have a warm bed at night and someone there to love him
He does have arthritis of the spine and hip which will require management. He is currently taking Dasuquin daily and doing so well with it. He gets around better and has become playful with the other dogs. He has a favorite spot he likes to lay and either chew on his favorite toy or will  lay quietly the whole day except for an occasional random bark. We like to think he is telling us what a great life he has now and thanking us.
Buddy may only have less then 5 yrs to live but he is so deserving of a loving home with a family that will never again abandoned him.
