*BUDDY IS NOT BEING RE-HOMED THROUGH THE PIXIE PROJECT. THIS IS A COURTESY POST ONLY. PLEASE CONTACT ED AT ed.kline@orecity.k12.or.us FOR MORE INFORMATION*

Hi! My name is Buddy. I’m a two-year-old pit bull. I am sweet, friendly, and very cuddly. My favorite things to do are play fetch, chomp on toys that squeak, and try to sit in your lap. Did I mention that I’m very cuddly? I also love “goofy time.” I like to squirm around and make silly noises. I’m smart, too. I know a few commands, like “sit” and “down.” I’m working on “come” and “stay,” but it’s very hard. I also love people, I aim to please, I’m a good listener, and I’m very easy to get along with.

Even though I’m sweet, I’m not sure I can be trusted around cats and other small animals. I don’t bark or chase, but I find them very interesting, and I tend to stare at them intently. It’s also hard for me to walk on a leash. I’m a strong boy, and I tend to pull, especially when other dogs are around. I don’t have very good social skills when it comes to playing with other dogs. I get very excited when I see them, and I’ll need lots of help learning how to interact with them.

I’d be a perfect fit for a home with humans who have experience with big dogs and have the patience and love to provide me with extra training with leash reactivity and playing with other dogs. I am looking for an owned home in a low traffic quiet area where I can have some space to practice my leash skills. 

I come neutered, fully vaccinated and micro-chipped. There is an adoption fee of $150, which will be reimbursed with proof of additional positive reinforcement training classes with a certified trainer. Please contact Ed at ed.kline@orecity.k12.or.us to meet me!
