Buford is an affectionate, rambunctious puppy who loves to play with chew toys and balls with hoomans and other dogs. Buford was found hungry and alone at a national park. He has thrived under DCH care - eating and drinking well, gaining weight and strength.

Buford loves playing with chew toys, chasing balls and carrying plush toys back to his dog bed. He also loves to cuddle! He has learned to go to the toilet outside and will whimper when he needs to go out to do his business. When he is awake, he is energetic but can play with his toys on his own or with you. When he tires from all his activity, he sleeps hard, usually during afternoon naps and at night. He is quiet but will bark softly when he wants to be carried up and down steep stairs. He is currently too small to climb steep steps on his own but he is getting stronger and more confident as each day passes. He can climb small steps now when previously he was unable to.

Buford is still learning how to walk on-leash. Because he is still small, he may feel a little overwhelmed being outside and prefers to stick to hoomans rather than walk ahead. He plays well with other dogs. He is untested with cats. He plays well with children of all ages.

Buford is microchipped and up-to-date with his preventative flea and worm treatments. He will be ready for adoption from 4 November 2023 after he has been desexed and received his first vaccination.

If you are looking for an affectionate, sweet, cuddly, playful puppy, then Buford would love to meet you.
