Big Buddy is probably the world's most mellow, loving, cuddly, adorably handsome oversized Sheltie-boy you will EVER meet.  I can't say enough great things about him because he's a total package.  As you probably guessed, Big Buddy is not perfect --- he does not do well with cats.  Your cats will not be happy to have him in the house.  But Buddy is a cuddly companion, great with children, happy to meet people, very well trained and behaves beautifully in a home.  Big Buddy was picked up as a stray and held for a long time in Lindon, UT because he was obviously such a great dog that someone had put a lot of training time into and a lot of love --- adjusts readily to his environment --- that the shelter was sure someone would be looking for him.  Strangely nobody came looking for this wonderful Sheltie-boy.  Now when I say Big Buddy is oversized --- he is seriously oversized.  He is overweight at 60lbs and on a diet (he used to weigh even more!).  Big Buddy's normal, healthy weight will be somewhere around 50lbs --- so he is and will be a big Sheltie-boy even when he's lost his excess weight.

The adoption fee for this absolute gem of a Sheltie-boy is $150.00.
