🐾 Buddy is waiting for his second chance at forever 🐾
Sometimes life changes in ways no one expects. Buddy had found his adopter, but shortly after coming home, his new family member experienced a serious fall and an extended recovery that means they are no longer able to care for him. Through no fault of his own, Buddy is once again looking for the family who will love him for the rest of his life.
Buddy is a sweet 5-year-old beagle who spent his whole life with one family before this unexpected change. He is a loving boy who wants to be near his people and be part of the family. ❤️
Buddy is a big personality in a beagle body! He is energetic, playful, and happiest when he has exercise, enrichment, and attention. He can be anxious when left alone and may chew on things when he’s worried. He also has a very enthusiastic beagle voice — when Buddy has something to say, he wants to make sure you hear it! 🐶
Buddy is looking for:
🏡 A home where someone is around most of the time
🐾 A patient adopter who will help him build confidence and work through his separation anxiety
🚶♂️ Someone ready for walks, playtime, and helping him burn off his beagle energy
👧 Older children are best since Buddy’s happy zoomies could accidentally knock over little ones
🐱 No cats — Buddy has not lived with cats and is not a fan when he sees them on walks
Buddy is okay with other dogs, although he may need a little time to feel comfortable. He experienced a scary dog attack in the past and lost part of his ear, so a calm introduction is important. He would also be perfectly happy as your one and only.
Buddy does have a condition called beagle pain syndrome (a scary name for something that is manageable). About once a year he may have an episode where his joints hurt and he doesn’t want to move much. Medication helps control it, and his current supply will likely last longer than the expiration date because he needs it so rarely.
Right now, Buddy is waiting in boarding for the family who will see what a wonderful companion he can be. He doesn’t need a perfect home — he needs a patient home that understands him, gives him structure, and reminds him that he is loved. 💙
Could Buddy be the missing piece in your family? Please share so we can help this sweet boy find his forever home. 🐾
Please note: Our rescue is foster-based and cannot hold dogs for future adoption due to travel, home renovations, or schedule changes. Adopters must be prepared to welcome their new companion within a reasonable timeframe.
We do our best to ensure every dog is as healthy and prepared as possible, but we ask adopters to understand that rescue dogs may need time to decompress and adjust. They are not perfect — they are simply in need of patience, understanding, and a second chance.
