Please read about our adoption process prior to applying for any animal with us.

Our website has information about our rescue, adoption process and link to our adoption application www.collarofhope.org

 We are a foster home based rescue and have no facility to visit.
 Prior to adoption, our animals are spay/neutered, vaccinated including rabies/age appropriate, microchipped and parasite treated/prevented as a minimum.

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Buddy, I'm 8 years old and a poodle bichon mix. Now let's just get the elephant in the room out there, ok? I've had some weight problems for probably my whole life. Now here's the good news, I'm working on it...every day... and I'm down 6 pounds!  I still need to lose some more, but I'm pretty proud of myself. So here's the deal, my new family needs to help me to continue to lose weight and become the healthy guy I'm meant to be. I love to go for walks and they are getting so much easier now that I'm, err...less bulky. So that part is really important and if you're like me and need to watch how much we eat and how much we move, we might be a really great team.

I also have something called "dry eye" which means I need daily eye drops for the rest of my life. I take them with no problem, but my new family will need to remember to give them to me so my eyes will stay infection-free. I do have a little trouble seeing it seems, but I can still get around just fine (I'm young at heart!). I'm really cooperative with the eye drops because I know they are good for me and keep me with the vision I do still have.

I really want a family of my own. I'm trying so hard to lose weight and be even more handsome and active. I really want a chance to feel at home again.
