This is Bud – a 3 year old male golden mix who was found as a stray. We don’t know what Bud has gone through but we know it was traumatic. Bud was one day from being put down and was cowering in the corner of his cage at animal control. Fortunately, some kind hearted people took one look at him and called us. The next day he was at the vet where we found out he had heartworms. Bud successfully completed his heartworm treatment and after working with a trainer to boost his confidence has found his forever home. He has a terrific new mom and dad who are dog fanatics! Dad even comes home from work on his lunch break just to watch Caesar Milan. Unfortunately, not too long ago they lost their beloved canine Simba as a result of an attack by an agressive dog. They have missed her every since, but hopefully now Bud can help heal their human hearts. Bud is quickly coming out of his shell and with his wonderful new life we think he’ll be the typical golden in no time at all. Bud will also have a new friend named Cody. Cody is mom and dad’s grandson and he stays with them every afternoon after school. Hopefully, the trauma of Bud’s former years will soon be nothing more than a distant memory and he’ll learn that most people are really good.
