MEET BUDDY



It all started with one dog: Buddy.
Buddy was kept in foster care for four years through a local animal rescue. She was 14 years old at the time she was taken into care. Buddy suffered from various medical conditions that prevented her from being adopted. While never permanently adopted, Buddy left paw prints on the hearts of the two foster homes she spent her final years. It is in her honour that Help a Buddy was created.
Buddy will be remembered as the dog who loved the following:
  • Eating food that didn't belong to her
  • Spurts of energy that reminded you we all still have a bit of puppy in us
  • Resilience through pain as long as she was surrounded by those she loved
In Buddy's honour, we are working behind the scenes to ensure that rescues, shelters, sanctuaries and other animal welfare groups in the province of Alberta are able to provide outstanding care throughout long-term animal rehabilitation lasting for a year or more.
