Breed: Jack Russell x
Age: Approx 8years
Location: Ngaruawahia

Meet Buddy, he is looking for his retirement home. Great with other dogs & kids. Even though he is 8 he is still very active and will chase the ball all day if you will throw it! He has a love for chasing wild rabbits so to be on the safe side it would be better for his new home not to have any pet rabbits . He currently lives with a couple cats & he seems ok with them.

Buddy is very intelligent & loves a cuddle & to watch tv. He will require a fully fenced yard as he has started taking himself for walks to see the neighbours. He does pull on the lead a little bit but because he is only small it doesn't give you much of an arm workout.

Buddy is desexed, vaccinated & registered. If you think you can offer Buddy a loving home please get in touch.

It was made from a pair of jeans from an op shop. "All of my gardening clothes come from op shops," she says. "Large men's shirts make good cover-ups to keep sun and insects off my arms. For the apron, start with a smaller size than you would wear so it doesn't wrap around too far. Check that it has a lot of pockets." So tell us if you've got similarly fashionable, exclusive-for-the-garden glad rags, and if yes, why not post a photo in the Reply space too!
