Hi there!  My name is Buddy!   I was found abandoned in a neighborhood in Central Arkansas, but thankfully a wonderful person found me and took me inside in the midst of the cold weather!  It was so nice to be in a warm home with food and water again!  

I am now in a very cool foster family with lots of canine friends and I hear that there is a feline in our midst but I have been told to stay clear!    One of my foster siblings is a youngster and loves to play.  He paws at my face constantly but I don't mind. I can tell he is young and just wanting to have fun so I just smile.  My foster mom and dad say I trot about and always look like I am smiling!   My vision is a bit of a mystery. I think I mostly see blobs moving around rather than clear shapes. But that doesn’t stop me from living my best life!

Within just 48 hours of arriving at my foster home, I amazed everyone by remembering the location of the two water dishes available to us canines, I figured out a doggie door by following the scent of my canine foster siblings.  I even have a favorite crate I like to rest in when it is too chaotic.  I’m a super sweet pup who wags my tail like a happy flag, and my beautiful blue eyes seem to look into the souls of the folks around me. Even though I bump into things sometimes, I can still follow voices and give the impression that I'm locking eyes with you.

I absolutely adore being around my foster mom, often following her everywhere. Sometimes, she finds me in the closet, searching for her—it’s quite comical! I also love snuggling in beds, where I can be a bit of a bed hog, snoring like a little teddy bear. And yes, I might roll off the bed at least once during the night, but I just find a comfy spot wherever I land and keep snoozing.

Despite my rough start and coming into rescue, I’m a happy fellow.  It’s clear I was once a beloved pet, and I can’t help but wonder if my previous owner passed away or ended up in a nursing home. What I know for sure is that I’m looking for someone special to share my golden years with.

Thank you for reading my story. I can't wait to meet my forever family soon!
