Labrador Retriever - Buddy - Pending - Medium - Young - Male
Updated: 9-24-14 Hi, I'm Buddy. I am 1 yrs old now!!!! Since coming to Wisconsin, I've been working on a transformation! I was neutered and have been working really hard to become a great canine citizen. I'd like to tell you about few things that I'm good at, things that I love, and things that I am working on. First, I'm really good at going in my crate. I just need a couple of treats and I zip right in. I am fine in my crate during the day when my foster parents are at work and I barely make a peep in the crate during the night time. I'm also really well potty trained and am unlikely to have accidents in the house. I take treats very gently and do great 'sits.' In fact, I am so great at sitting that I am often complimented on how awesome I am by complete strangers who see me sitting at the corner when I am out for a walk. Because I am smart, I'm starting to work on 'down' and 'come,' too. I love lots of things, like playing and belly rubs. I'm a very playful guy and am especially partial to playing fetch, tugging, and chewing on squeaky toys and my Kong! I also love looking out windows for rabbits, and squirrels and will race back and forth to various windows, trying to find the best view. I have a pretty high prey drive, so I probably wouldn't do too well in a house with cats. I love, LOVE, love going for walks! I would probably do really well with a family that likes to runI could be your running Buddy! I've also been going to the dog park lots lately and have a really fun time there, racing around with the other dogs. Its great! Lastly, here are a few things that I'm working on. Like many dogs my age, I like to chew. Sometimes, I like to chew on things that I should not chew on (like your socks when you are trying to put them on your feet or my dog bed), but listen pretty well when I am told 'No!' Since coming to Wisconsin a couple of months ago, my foster family thinks that I have become a new dog. I am so much more confident and comfortable and understand my role in the family so much better than when I first arrived. Im still looking for a strong pack leader to keep teaching me the ropes. Because I am pretty high energy and learning that not everyone likes to be jumped up on in greeting, I'll do best in a family with older children (age 12+). If you open your home to me, I guarantee you will get a lifelong Buddy! Adoption Fee: $400.00 ***We do not have a central adoption center at this time. All our dogs are in private foster homes within WI. At this time we only place our dogs in areas of WI. The breed of our dogs is our best guess with the help of our veterinarians. Our Weight Classes are as follows: 0- 25lbs - Small 26- 45lbs - Medium 46-89 - Large 90+ X-large If you are adopting an adult dog, which we consider 6 months of age or older, your adoption fee includes the following: Spay/Neuter, Rabies and Distemper shots, dewormed, flea & tick preventative, heartworm tested and microchipped. If you are adopting a dog younger than 6 months of age, the dog will be up to date on the shots as per the dogs age. The dog will be dewormed, flea/tick preventative and microchipped. We only spay/neuter our dogs by 6 months of age. If you decide to adopt a younger dog than 6 months of age, they will need to be spayed/neutered at one of our preferred clinics. This will be determined by your contract along with the month they should have their surgery. This is included in your adoption fee. Once you are approved with our rescue, you can meet any one of our dogs within the fosters home. If you are interested in the dog you met, you can take the dog home under our mandatory foster to adopt program. You receive 5 days to see if the dog is the right fit for your home. If it is, we will conduct the home visit and finalize adoption. If it is not, it is returned to the foster. We are happy to find you another dog that meets your needs in your home. If a dog is listed as PENDING, a family has met the dog and planning on adopting the dog after the home visit has been conducted. We always suggest sending in an application for a dog becau
