Our UpTail ReSale Pet of the Week is Buddy the Elf! He is a 3 year old 40lb basset hound mix. Buddy is a personable and goofy guy who loves to carry his toys with him everywhere he goes. He can be shy in new environments but warms up quickly with the help of a squeaky toy.

Buddy gets along great with cats and most dogs.
He is neutered, up to date on shots and preventative, heartworm negative, and microchipped!
