Story
Meet Buddy!! This 2 yr old boy is a beautiful 60 lb Lab mix with good manners. He knows to use his crate as a safe space, he waits for his dinner patiently, and he is housebroken. The one area he has less patience for is waiting for love from his humans. When he sits on the couch, he uses his paw to encourage your arm to pet him.… And he’d love to lick your face if you will let him. When Buddy sees his leash, he is interested in what’s next. He likes car rides and putting his nose out the window to catch as many smells as he can. He gets along great with other dogs and children, and even ignores the cats. Our sweet Buddy was abandoned alone at a junkyard in Oklahoma when the owners moved away. He is blind in his sunken-in left eye which may have been a birth defect and he arrived to us with conjunctivitis in it. To prevent any future problems, we are having the left eye removed and stitched up. He sees great out of his other eye so don’t let that deter you. He also has wonky hips. Our vet thinks Buddy may have been hit by a car in the far past and left to let it heal on its own. Our vet is doing an x-ray to see exactly what happened in there, but he doesn’t think it will change anything. Buddy doesn’t seem to have pain and will still live a great life. As of now, the only accommodations he requires are shortened walks and minimal stairs in his new home…Though Buddy would happily not cooperate with that. Don’t stop reading, he is an amazing animal who deserves your attention! He hasn’t always known love and safety and he’s excited for a forever family! Buddy is neutered, fully vetted and vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested, and ready for adoption! Adoption donation fee: $350. ***If you’re interested in Buddy, please fill out an application in the drop down menu on our website: https://havenanimalrescuenebraska.org PLEASE SUBMIT AN APPLICATION AT: https://havenanimalrescuenebraska.org/adoption-application We do not have a facility. All of our animals are in volunteer foster homes. Once an application is pre-approved (contingent upon a home check) we will contact applicants that are a good match and set up a time for a meet. At that time we are happy to answer all of your questions. No inquiries prior to that please. All of our animals are spayed/neutered, examined by a vet, up-to-date on vaccinations, on heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, and microchipped. We adopt our animals as strictly inside companion pets. We will do a veterinarian reference check and a home safety check. We are located in Omaha, NE and we do not ship our animals. We are all volunteers so please be patient with us. Our requested adoption fees help go towards medical expenses, food, transportation, toys, and other supplies for our animals. We are a state licensed, 501c3 nonprofit rescue and the adoption donation may be tax deductible for you. Thank you for choosing adoption!! April 23, 2024, 12:59 am
