About Buddy

Hi everybody I'm in need of some help. This is Buddy. He was chained outside in Ohio for 6 years by some really crappy humans. Since the shit humans gave him up,he's been wonderful. For six months my brother had him, he has shown no signs of aggression and has been an ideal dog. I did see a little bit of food possession when I fed him with my dogs but it wasn't an issue. I just fed them separate. But a serious issue has occurred. The circumstances are as follow: my father was playing with Buddy as he chewed on a deer leg. My father who is used to dogs like Irish setters did not understand how to read Buddys body language. But he gave a warning growl that he wanted to chew and be left alone. My father did not understand the growl. He continue to play with him and it led to a very strong bite. It did cause damage and it did break the skin. Due to the circumstances my brother is no longer able to keep this dog. He works long hours and cannot give this dog the training and attention that it needs. His dim girlfriend, who does not have a job, is just too incompetent to care for this dog. I'm looking for a home with no pets and no small children. The owner should understand dogs, understand how to read their body language and be willing to put in work with Buddy. Buddy is an excellent dog and can make a great companion animal for the right person. But he is not just for anybody. So I'm on here in hopes that maybe the right person will see this ad and help me. Because putting this dog down would absolutely break my heart. He really is a special dog.
