Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Buddy is a very sweet, energetic and fun, three-year-old, 57-pound, male, tri-color hound/shepherd-mix looking for a loving guardian.
Buddy is happiest when he has the opportunity to exercise daily. He’s not an apartment dog; he’d prefer a home with a yard where he can run and play. Buddy enjoys the enjoys the company of other dogs, but he has a strong prey drive so he is not good with cats or other small animals; he’s quite the hunter.
Once Buddy has had enough exercise, he’s a really great dog. He’s gentle, loving and calm in the home. He knows a lot of commands and is very loving to people. He could fetch a stick for hours if you let him. He is housebroken and crate-trained; he’s also good in the car. He’s probably best in a home with teens and adults who enjoy an active lifestyle.
Buddy is very healthy, neutered, up-to-date on vaccines, micro-chipped, de-wormed, heartworm-tested and on monthly preventative. Buddy is blind in one eye from a previous injury, but he gets around just fine. His adoption fee of $200 benefits the rescued dogs of Lucky Dog. If you are interested in meeting and possibly adopting him, please contact Melia at melia88@comcast.net or 708-224-1900. He is being fostered in Round Lake, Illinois.
