Buddy

This Buddy may be the perfect “buddy” for you!

Buddy is a 3-year-old neutered male German Shepherd weighing in at 90 lbs. He’s no lightweight and would do best in a home without kids due to his size and history of resource guarding. Hey, sometimes we like to keep things for ourselves, right?  But then again, we do like to share at times too. Buddy loves to play fetch and is always ready for a hardy game of tug.  He’s no couch potato!  Buddy needs lots of exercise and training time and is looking for an active person to work with him.  Buddy has shown dog reactivity on a leash. But with the right person to help him learn, he could get to the point where he could go on walks; dog parks or Petco runs are not his cup of tea.  Buddy has not been cat or dog-tested and would do best being the only male dog in the house. Although he may not be a fan of other pets, Buddy does very well at the vet's office, being handled for grooming and vet procedures. Even though Buddy does go into a crate, they are not his favorite place to be.  He does not destroy the crate, but he does tend to spin and bark when crated, so apartment living isn’t the best situation for Buddy.  His ideal owner would be a retired military or police officer. A big strong man who can handle a big strong dog and bond with him through play and wrestling.
