Mary Cummins, a wildlife rehabilitator and the owner of Animal Advocates, found Buddy on the streets of LA last Christmas. He was starving, filthy and badly scarred.
Less than a year later, an empty eye socket is all that’s left of that sad, desperate dog.
At least once a week, I check in on Buddy’s Facebook page, and I think “Why has no one adopted him yet?” But then I remember why I haven’t adopted him, even though I want to, and I know that there are dozens of other people who would also like to but have their own reasons for not doing so.
Somewhere out there, though, there’s a home for Buddy. I’m hoping that by blogging this for Pedigree‘s “Write a Post, Help a Dog” project, I can help him find it.
