About Buzz

It’s coming up to one year since Buzz arrived in the shelter, so we are looking for a UK foster home for him, to give him a better chance of being adopted. He was just ten months old at the time, and has now spent the same amount of time in a kennel. This isn’t the life that he should have become accustomed to, and we desperately want him to have the family he deserves. He’s grown into a very good boy, and we’re hoping this year will be his time to shine.

Buzz has seen many dogs come and go during his time in the shelter. He’s shared a kennel run with dozens of different dogs, and each time he’s been accepting, friendly, and eager to play given the opportunity. He was a very frightened boy when he first arrived with us, but he’s a completely different dog now and has grown so much in confidence and social skills. The volunteers love taking him out for walks at the weekend, and he relishes any opportunity to be fussed over!

Buzz is now fully grown and on the slightly smaller side of medium. He now boasts a lovely soft coat, and ever wagging tail, and he’s always happy to greet new people coming into the shelter. He’s picked up lead training really nicely and walks beautifully with the volunteers at the weekend. He is focused on his handler, and always looking out for a way to score some treats! He’s keen to please, and despite having limited opportunities to learn over the past year due to the shelter setting, he’s still really embraced any chance he’s had. Imagine how well he’d do with some proper training!

Buzz has been great with other dogs ever since he arrived, and we think that he would enjoy a home with another resident dog to befriend and learn from. However, as long as he’s given the time and patience to adapt at his own speed, he could be adopted as the only dog. He craves attention and social interaction, so as long as he has plenty of companionship from his new family, he’ll be happy. We don’t know if Buzz has ever had the opportunity to live in a proper home before though, so it will be an adjustment to begin with.

Buzz would be happiest in a home outside of the city with a moderately active lifestyle, a little garden to mosey about in, and lots of lovely surrounding places to explore. He’s a clever, loyal breed mix, and we expect that he will really flourish once he finds his forever home. He’s a genuine sweetheart with lots of love to give, he just needs to find where he belongs.
