This is Buddy. He is 4 1/2 years old and has lived much of his life chained to a dog house in the hot sun. His former owner couldn’t afford to keep Buddy and knew Buddy deserved a better life so he let us help. Now Buddy is living the golden life. He has a great new mom and dad, a little brother, a big little brother and a nanny too. His little brother is a 3 year old human boy. His big little brother is a 15 pound shih tzu – he’s older, but smaller. Although Buddy knows that dynamite comes in small packages so we’re sure he’ll remember to mind his manners and respect his elders. Buddy thinks mom is great, especially because her female intuition. When she met Buddy she knew they were done looking. Dad is a soccer coach at UGA. Buddy thinks he’s super cool because dad promised to take him to work with him sometimes. We imagine Buddy will be a Georgia Dawg – although he’s much cuter than that other guy. He’s hoping after he shows those guys what a good golden boy can do he’ll have his own job at UGA.
