Buddy is a 6-year-old Labrador/Pyrenees mix looking for a loving new home. He’s a friendly, easygoing dog who enjoys walks, playing with kids, and spending time with his people. He also gets along well with other dogs.Buddy has been a great companion, but he has shown some uneasiness around our infant, so we feel it’s best to find him a home that’s a better fit for his comfort.We’re hoping to find someone who can give Buddy the safe, happy environment he deserves. Please reach out if you think you might be a good match or want to learn more.

Story
A few years ago I had to put my dog down and I went to hang out with my brother at a friend's house. His friend had a dog that was in a kennel with the blanket over it next to the bathroom. I moved the blanket and I seen my baby that I just had to put down. she looked just like my dog. I asked what was she doing with it she said she was sending it to ARL the next day and I know how to ARL treats pit bulls so I told her no she wasn't. I took the dog. she was 6 months old at the time. she has his cute little thing where she likes to grab the leash by the handle and I hold the link part so that she can feel like she's walking me. she also likes to take trash bags out of my hands so she can carry one to the trash. she's a good girl I just don't have the time to take care of her.

- Loves to connect with her people through play and fun activities - May prefer to explore and do her own thing here in the shelter, but will likely blossom once she's in a loving home environment and has had time to decompress - This girl is eager to explore, so using a harness on walks is recommended - - Friendly and curious with other dogs The ARL's shelter software requires that we choose a primary breed for our dogs.
