Buck

Name: Buck

Sex: Male (not altered)

Breed: Chesapeake Bay Retriever

Location: Southern NJ

Vet Info: Buck has not seen a vet since his good samaritan picked him up so she does not know if he has had vaccinations or a heartworm test. Buck weighs around 60 pounds.

Owner Info: Buck is a very handsome fellow with a sad story.  He was found wandering the neighborhood very malnourished. A good samaritan took him in and tried to contact his owner. She was told by the former owner's sister that Buck was not taken care of and he was probably let go on purpose. Buck's caregiver says she has become very attached to him but is hoping he can find a better home with someone who has more experience and can spend more time with him than she can. He has been with his caregiver for two months.

Buck is an outdoor dog with a fenced yard.  Because he stays outside, his caregiver does not know if he is house-broken or leash-trained.  Buck is described as extremely friendly and good with people of all ages, male and female dogs, and other pets.  His caregiver also has two other dogs, two bunnies, and a bird. Buck has never shown aggression while he has been with his current caregiver and he is not possessive of toys, treats, or food. His caregiver feels he adapts well to new situations.

When asked about his eyes, his caregiver said, “I believe he is fully blind in one and the other is extremely cloudy and on a daily basis has fluid leaking from it.”

Buck's caregiver says Buck deserves another chance at a good home with someone who cares and has more time for him.
