My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

MEET BUDDY!  



Thiis handsome and charming 3-year-old male German Shepherd is looking for his forever home. Buddy is sweet, smart, and playful once he is comfortable in his surroundings. He may have some reactivity towards new people and situations, but with patience and understanding, he quickly warms up and becomes a loving companion.



One of Buddy's endearing quirks is his love for singing along with sirens. He also loves to bring his humans gifts such as table plants, remote controls, and oven mitts. Buddy is crate trained and housebroken, making him an easy addition to any home.



Buddy enjoys being active and exploring his surroundings. He loves to go for walks and runs, and he would be the perfect companion for someone who enjoys spending time outdoors. He is also very intelligent and loves to learn new tricks and commands, making him a great candidate for continued training and socialization.
While Buddy gets along well with people, he needs to be the only dog in the household due to his potential reactivity towards other dogs. He is up to date on all his vaccinations and has been neutered.



If you are looking for a sweet, smart, and playful companion who loves to sing and bring you gifts, then Buddy could be the perfect match for you. 



We want to make sure Buddy goes home with the right family! An approved application, personal references, vet check including  annual exams, continuous heartworm prevention, meet and greet, and a home visit are required for adoption.



Please note, we receive a large number of applications. We appreciate your patience as we complete our review processes. A personal interview, reference checks, meet and greet with pet, home visit and a solid vet history are required for adoption.

More about this rescue

Ruff Dog Rescue, RDR, INC is a NO KILL, non-profit, 501(c)3 all-breed charity pet rescue located in Milton, Georgia.

Through the collaborated efforts of our dedicated volunteers, we rescue dogs from Georgia's High/Quick KILL shelters or from dire situations and place them into temporary foster homes until find suitable forever home. Our foster families nurture, rehabilitate, socialize and train the rescued pet to facilitate their development while they await adoption.

RDR strives to create awareness to overwhelming homeless pet population. We do our part helping reduce the number of unwanted pets by spaying and neutering all our rescues, and encourage the public to ADOPT NOT SHOP! Our group is founded on the principle that no animal should die unwanted or unloved.
