Meet Buddy

We just rescued this very handsome — but dirty and injured — baby boy. I picked him up on Friday afternoon and we’re now at EVE Pet Hospital getting his paw and leg checked out. I’m praying it’s not cancer and that we won’t have to amputate!

I called him Buddy, and he seems to respond to it already. Despite being in obvious pain, he is one of the sweetest, most trusting Rotties I’ve met in a long time! Buddy wandered onto someone’s porch today and decided that’s where he’d stay. The homeowner had to catch a plane at noon and didn’t know what to do with him, but thankfully, her neighbor (who I’ve helped with other Rotties before) reached out for help — and now Buddy is safe with us. He’s in the back right now having his vitals taken. Please keep this sweet boy in your prayers!

Everyone at the ER has already fallen in love with him… and you will too.
