We have retired from cat rescue in year 2018. Although, we do come upon a kitty or dog that crosses our path and needs help. If so, you will find those active adoption listings here on this site.
BUDDY - Doberman mix puppy, 7 mos old
BUDDY
Buddy is the patient one and shy to strangers. He would be best with a family that is familiar with the Dobie breed. Small children make him nervous but he is okay with teenagers. He will need all of the typical obedience training and quickly catch-on because he is a smart boy. He currently knows 'sit' and 'stay'. Buddy will be hesitant to get close during your first meet, but he will eventually take treats from your hand. Giving Buddy time, he will slowly warm-up to you and loves getting pets and a body massage. You will know when he is finally comfortable with you when he lays on your feet or sits/lays next to you.
Buddy is a thinker - will watch what is going on around him before engaging. He likes hanging out in the house and would make a great couch potato. He is a Velcro dog and loves to be around his human and get hugs and kisses. Buddy has a kind soul and calm demeaner. He is learning to walk with a leash but will need continued training on this, along with all basic obedience training.
Buddy is not a ball-catching/retrieving kind of pup, but he does enjoy lots of playtime with the resident dog and relax with a large selection of good (heavy-duty) chew toys. His bark is quite deep and as typical of a Doberman, will make a great protector of the family. He is not a constant barker. When Buddy barks, there is definitely a reason for his being alert.
This boy is beautiful, long legs and big paws to eventually grow into (he's still growing) and has a white starburst blaze on his chest. He does well with the indoor cats but will chase a cat if it is running. He means no harm, just loves the chase. A quick 'NO CAT' and he stops. A few of the house cats actually like getting his attention and a little playtime from Buddy. He is potty-trained and crate trained. Buddy weighs-in at 54 lbs with more growth on the way.
