Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet our lovable boy, Buddy, a unique dog with a heart full of potential and a bundle of quirks! Buddy is a Yorkie mix, about 1½ and weighs just about 9 lbs.
Buddy will need his new family’s help. Because he has some coordination and vision issues, Buddy had a neurological workup and was diagnosed with hydrocephalus. He faces some challenges in his life and will need a special family to help him navigate his daily life. He is currently receiving a short course of steroids which we are hoping will alleviate some of his symptoms.
Potty training is a struggle. He’s still figuring out the dog door—most of the time, he needs a little help to come inside. He still has accidents but is used to wearing a belly band most of the time.
On the bright side, he’s a healthy little guy and has plenty of energy! This sweet pup craves attention but isn’t quite sure how to ask for it just yet. He is a bit timid around the other dogs in his foster home. and would benefit from a home with less activity and laid-back puppy siblings or where he is the only dog and can receive all the attention from his family.
There are days when he enjoys simply hanging out in the garage, seemingly content to keep his own company. He loves snuggling on the couch and bed, which makes us believe he will be a loyal and loving companion given a little time.
This special guy is looking for a place where he can settle in comfortably and show off his sweet personality as he learns and grows! With love and understanding, we know he’ll thrive and become a cherished member of any family.
Buddy has been neutered, is current on vaccines, has tested negative for heartworm and has been microchipped.
If you are interested in adopting Buddy, please complete an adoption application on our website (uaaf.org/adopt). For more information, call/text Rachel at 512-573-7435 or email lain105@gmail.com.
