BUDDY
5/7/08 - After a week and a half, Buddy is doing well. He does seem to have an agression issue with other male dogs. During a walk in our local park, he took an immediate dislike to two male dogs that we have met before and our Abby has played with. Growling, pulling on the leash to get to them, etc. I will say, he is a very strong doggie!. He is always happy to go for a walk, and gets very excited when he sees the leash! His whole butt starts wagging. Very funny for such a big dog. We have been working on the leash training, walking him at least twice a day. If you keep him close, he is well behaved. I think Buddy would do well in a home as an only dog, or with a non- dominant female. He would probably do okay with a cat also. He does seem to like our cat, thought Lucky doesn't really want any part of him. He got close, and Lucky backed him up, so he laid down and whined!!! He is a real lovebug, and likes to give big sloppy kisses. He has met some children, but no small ones. He is friendly, and tries to give kisses. He is big, so his enthusiasm might make the little ones fall down!!!!! He is a great dog, and will even come when you call him, which is more than I can say for my boxer girl!!!

Buddy is a sweet loving dog.  He is a bit larger than my petite little boxer girl, but they get along like they have always been friends. Buddy loves to run and play with my Abby, and he absolutely loves to go for walks.  He is leash trained somewhat, but very strong, so more work on that.  He is a gentleman, and will sit and wait to get his breakfast and dinner.  He also knows some basic commands, like sit, down, stay, and he will come when you call him most of the time. He is a big mush, and very affectionate, and likes to lay on the couch, on my husband, like a big lap dog.  He also likes to lay with my little boxer girl, and they use each other as pillows.   He is curious about my cat,  but my cat hasn't allowed him to get too close yet.  Time will tell. Buddy has not been to the vet yet, but he seems to be a healthy boy. He is scheduled for spay on 5/9 and I will have a better idea of his weight and health then.

Buddy is a young stray boy that was picked up today by his foster home from a great shelter we work with.  Updates soon from his foster home.

Here is some of the info from a shelter volunteer:

"I took a bunch of pictures of this wonderful Boxer boy, who is very young probably no more then 1 year.  He is extremely playful and sweet as can be and one of the best looking Boxer I've ever seen as you can see from his pictures."
