About BUDDY

Chinese Crested / Bearded Collie
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Male

Buddy is a special guy with a lot of love to give, but we want to be completely transparent about his personality so he lands in the right home. Most of the time, he's an absolute sweetheart-affectionate, playful, and wonderful to be around. However, he does have a 'Jekyll and Hyde' quality where he can suddenly shift from sweet to reactive or aggressive when triggered. Because of this, he needs an experienced handler who understands canine body language, can identify his specific triggers (like resource guarding, handling boundaries, or sudden movement), and can maintain a structured, calm environment. He will do best in an adult-only home committed to management and positive reinforcement training. �'ۢ The Sweet Side: Affectionate, loving, and engaging when comfortable and relaxed. �'ۢ The Challenge: Shifts quickly into aggressive or reactive behavior when triggered (needs an observant handler). �'ۢ Ideal Home: Adult-only household with experienced dog owners skilled in management, strict routines, and reading subtle stress signals. �'ۢ Requirements: Patience, structured environment, and commitment to ongoing behavior management.
