Story
Looks like: Maltese, Poodle Mix Male, 14 years old (estimated), 17 pounds Buddy Boy is looking for his forever pal. Could that be you? Buddy is a gentle senior fellow who is a little hard of hearing and starting to lose his eye sight, but if you lay a blanket or towel down on the couch, he will see that as his spot and is ready to cuddle up and nap the day away! Buddy does great around other dogs and has lived with many canine companions over the years. He used to live with a cat as well. He has also lived with children, but in his senior years, he prefers a quieter home and would love to find someone with whom he can share a peaceful retirement. He loves riding in the car and gets short spurts of zoomies, running around with his soft toys! Buddy can be quite nervous in new situations and meeting new people, so slow and gentle greetings are a must. But he loves people! Once he's met you and gotten some snuggles, you're in his circle! He'll follow you around asking for pets and will even paw at you for attention. Sadly, Buddy Boy's senior guardian recently passed away after being together for the past 14 years. He came to POMDR to find his next cuddle buddy.

Story
Looks like: Poodle mix Male, 9 years old (estimated), 11 pounds Bonded to Marlin Marlin found Nemo! And we are so excited to have these two handsome boys in our program! This bonded pair does well with other dogs but they really only focus on one another. Marlin and Nemo came to us a few days apart and their reunion was one for the books! These boys instantly remembered one another from their former days living together and lit up with delight! They are now searching for their forever home together. Marlin may be a bit shy at first, but as soon as he gets a feel for his surroundings, he is an absolute love bug! He seems to appreciate the company of his pal Nemo over human companions. Nemo on the other hand is his outgoing, extroverted, and friendly counterpart. He loves making new friends, both human and canine alike. Nemo and Marlin joined us from Hitchcock Road Animal Shelter after they were found together as strays.
