Buddy TP 07-069 [1]

3/4/07: Buddy is a 1 ½ year old Golden who arrived from northern Minnesota in the late afternoon on March 3rd. He was surrendered by his family because they thought he could have a better life with a family that had more time for him. He has spent most of his life outside and chained up. He has a very thick coat and a big head. Buddy will go to the vet this week for a check up, weigh-in, and to get ready to be neutered. Right now we are estimating his weight to be about 90 lbs. Yes, he is a big boy. Here’s a note from Buddy:

Hi everyone! Thanks for visiting my website! My name is Buddy (aka Big Bear by my foster humans). They tell me that I am a gorgeous Golden with beautiful red fur, big paws, gigantic head, lots of energy, and a sweet personality. I love the snow and I race around in the backyard with my foster brother and former RAGOM dog, Copper. I am a very active boy and it takes a while for me to settle down and relax. I pant a lot and my humans are not sure if it is because I have spent my whole life outside and have a thick coat or if I am anxious right now.

To be honest, I don’t understand leashes ---don’t think I have used them ever before, but I am tolerating the leash and a Gentle Leader. I pull really, really hard and will need lots of work for walks. I get along with other dogs and would be good with a family that has kids. However, I don’t know my own size and may bump over small children. And watch out for the coffee table. Why do things need to be on the coffee table anyways? I clear it with my big posterior. Oh, also, I want to tell you that I need a fenced in yard, pretty please. And, cats, probably not a good idea because I think they are just overgrown squirrels or something from outside and I just want to chase them. Please take a look at my pictures and let me know if you would like to meet me. I am very excited to find my forever family, so if you are interested please email the placement humans.
