Buddy was my late brother's dog, who was sadly trapped with him when he passed in his apartment. I say this only to (maybe?) explain his behavior, which is close to Pica. He will steal food from anyone and any animal, and doesn't slow him down a bit. That said, I agreed to take him in upon my brother's demise, and paid big $ to have his cataracts replaced and to buy the insulin he needs twice daily. I don't care about what I 'put into' him - all animals deserve that - but if he's not the focus of attention, he gets so excited he becomes low-key destructive to doors in his excitement to get out and be part of what's going on. I'm disabled and in a wheelchair, and my wife is a teacher who isn't here most of the day every day...we've had Buddy almost three years now and have tried all we know and are able to do to help calm him down, but we're at our wits' end -- especially with two other dogs and four cats to care for. He's very resourceful, and resists our attempts to keep him out of the cat boxes, if you know what I mean. We believe he just needs a more active family with more ability to care for him than we can muster anymore. We'll even have Chewy ship his insulin to whomever will take him and love him and play with him like he needs and deserves...we're just not that kind of people, and as I've said, we've done our best to try. Please help us find Buddy the fun, forever home he needs...I think, with one or two others like himself, but no more. That said, he's a lover; he's just tooooooo energetic for us to care for any longer, and we want to see him go to a ShihTzu loving family!
