  Buddy, 11 months Male Pitbull/Basset/Lab  Mix

Buddy Buddy

Buddy, formerly Spotty, is a recent return as adopters both lost jobs due to Covid. He was not given the monthly heart worm preventive and is now testing positive for heart worms so will be treated at Tufts in Grafton. Buddy is undergoing prep for the heart worm treatment and will need a reliable local adopter to see him through the treatment. He is microfalaria negative so is not considered contagious at this point but we would still want to take extra precautions and prefer he be the only dog in the household while undergoing treatment as he will need to be kept quiet for a month following the first injection. Buddy is a very sweet, very intelligent boy. His foster family says he loves being with his people. He makes great eye contact and loves everyone he meets. He would like an active family because he loves going for long walks or hikes (once the treatment is over). He is very friendly with other dogs, wants to engage with people/dogs as they walk by. Enjoys playing and retrieving squeaky toys. He is totally housebroken, he sits for his food and is very compliant and eager to learn new commands. He knows sit, down, stay, off, come. Buddy crates nicely and sleeps all night till his morning walk. He travels nicely in a car.
