Say hello to We**ie! We**ie is a 4 year old mixed breed who loves to go for walks, play with toys and hang out with his favorite humans! We**ie is great in a leash and is super smart and confident. He’s not a fan of other dogs though so he needs to be the only pet in the home. Come by and meet this pint sized cutie!

Meet Remi! Remi is a 1 year old, male, Australian cattle dog/heeler mix who weighs about 27 pounds. Remi is a playful young man who loves to go for walks, play with toys and get lots of attention! He hasn’t been at Buddy long but he’s already stolen the hearts of all the volunteers with his sweet disposition and soulful brown eyes. Remi is looking for that special person or family to adopt him who will give him lots of love as well as structure and training. Could that be you? If so, he’d love to meet you so come on by during open hours or call to make an appointment!
