I found buddy abandoned and locked in a cage. Buddy was laying in his own mess and was extremely under weight., he weighed just 3 kgs. Buddy had a serious skin condition called dermodectic mange and due to him not being treated and also being left in his own mess he also had secondary infections in his skin. Buddy's paw pads were raw due to the amount of urine he had been left in. I drove him 86 m
iles to my vets checking that Buddy was alive constantly along the way as i wasn't sure he was going to make it. The vet thought that Buddy had no chance of survival but I wanted to try.....
After lots of love and care and lots of vet visits my little boy pulled through. Buddy's skin will never fully recover due to so much neglect but with a special diet, Advocate and coatex shampoo we can manage, he now weighs 18kgs and is my best friend, he loves everyone and everything. People and animals are his best friends. A lot of people say how lucky Buddy dog is that I found him but really I think I am the lucky one as I found my best friend that day. Buddy's favourite things are cuddling up on the sofa, playing frisbee, walking with some of his favourite 4 legged friends and going for outings in the car (I'm convinced his love of the car comes from the very first day I took him from that horrible place, The car was his transport to a pain free life). I am determined to give Buddy the best life possible to make up for all the pain and neglect he suffered. He has climbed 2 of the 3 highest mountains in England, he enjoys his holidays at the seaside with friends both 2 legged and 4. We are off to Norfolk this year with 11 of his 4 legged friends x Buddy holds no grudges against people even though a person was to blame for all of his pain. He is a happy chap and smiles everyday. Buddy is a social little boy and loves life. He is so in tune with people and even knew when my grans sugars were low and would make a fuss till she had taken her medication . Buddy knows when people are upset and will try to comfort them. I can not tell you how much I love my little boy # #
