About

Meet Buddy

Update: We're the bonded boys, Buddy and Rocco and we are a very sweet duo with lots of energy and a desire to just be included and loved. Buddy, the larger of the two: I am a sweet love bug who just wants to rest his head on your lap and get all the pets.   Rocco, the smaller boy: I'm a stick of ball-chasing dynamite!  You better be ready to supply lots of balls to chase (because we love to destroy a basic tennis ball).   We are both are potty trained and we have had zero accidents in the house or the crate.  When we lay down, we are constantly on top of each other.  We truly do like to share a crate and our first foster mom definitely encourages crating when we can't be watched because we are counter surfers.  We also sleep overnight in the crate just fine.  Not a peep!  We also haven't played with something that is not our dog toy, except for a couple of clementines we snuck off the counter.  Rocco does get a little territorial over stuffed toys.   We need help working on our obedience.  We know some basics like sit and off.  We do like to jump on you in our excitement or to show affection.  We will sit nicely before being fed if asked.  Our biggest need is help learning to walk on a leash.  Our foster mom isn't sure we ever really were taken anywhere on a leash before.  We do get overly excited when we see another dog.   We're ready to be loved by someone excited to have us around and who has a big fenced backyard.  Unknown how we do with cats or other dogs in our space.  We met one neighbor dog through the fence.  It was all tail wags and fun.  Rocco got a little obsessive about playing but not aggressive.  He just really wanted to run the fence with the neighbor dog and wouldn't stop barking when the other dog got tired. Very sweet boy that needs obedience training.  I am bonded to my brother Rocko
