Hi, I’m Buddy! I’m a lovely Cockapoo boy looking for a special foster-to-adopt home. I’m a friendly, happy and sociable boy who loves meeting other dogs and really enjoys being around people. I adore fuss and attention, so I’m hoping to find someone who will give me lots of love and cuddles.
I do have some skin issues, so I need to stay on a hydrolysed diet to help keep me comfortable and my skin healthy. I’m a very much-loved boy and, sadly, I’m looking for a new home because of my owner’s health. I’m hoping to find a wonderful family who will love me just as much and give me the happy future I deserve.
