Description
Sadly needing to find a good home for our dog Buddy, we don't have the time to train him properly or take him out regularly anymore, it's not fair on him. The previous owner only used him for breeding, didn't train him much and was clearly abusive towards him. We didn't know this at the time but found out afterwards and worked a lot with him to become less scared of everything. Nowadays He is very friendly, loves to cuddle, he makes cute grumble noises when he's relaxed, knows basic commands, and loves to swim. Buddy does well at home when we go out so you don't have to worry about him making a mess or having any accidents, never had any noise complaints about him either. He is potty trained but does leak/have accidents if too excited or is scared (I take him out to potty 3 times a day to prevent that and before we have guests over) He would be best as a only dog, he's not aggressive but is very forward with other dogs, he barks and tries to mount them, he is not neutered this may play into why he's like that, it's made it difficult for me to walk him. He's been around other dogs within the family and has been fine with them. He's not a bad dog but needs someone who can put time in training him and someone who is active. He wouldn't make a good farm dog, more of a companion/family dog.
