    Two Beagles Searching For Love After Owner Unable To Bring Them On Move

    18 hours ago

    (MA) Buddy and Rat are an adorable pair of Beagle mix pups who, as a bonded pair of best friends, are searching for the family that will help them start the next chapter of their lives. These two pups recently came into Great Dog Rescue New England's care after their owner was forced to surrender them. Their owner was moving to Brazil and was unfortunately unable to bring them along for the move.

    Though they haven't had an easy time with all the sudden change, Buddy and Rat have luckily been placed with a loving foster who has been helping them adjust. Their future owner will of course need to have patience and be willing to do the same. But just look at those faces, and you should know they are absolutely worth it!

    More Information On Buddy & Rat

    Buddy and Rat are both 11-year-old senior Beagle mix pups. Their Petfinder profile says they both weigh around 25 pounds. They have short coat lengths, which are apricot, beige, white, and cream in color. These boys are both up to date on their vaccinations and are neutered. They are also housebroken.

    According to Great Dog Rescue New England, Buddy and Rat are very nice and well behaved pups. After such sudden change at an older age, they are unsurprisingly very stressed due to the new environment. They are a bit shy and scared as a result, but with a patient foster have been adapting and doing better and better each day. As senior pups, they are both very low energy. The most important thing in their lives, are each other.

    There is unfortunately and has been since the pandemic was over and with this inflation more and more pets are being turned to shelters tied up abandoned. In the northwest alone, the cost of ownership for Vet bills and Feed is astronomical. Then you add singles or families who are moving and cannot take their pets with them, and those animals are turned over to a shelter or abandoned. Then you have your seniors or someone who becomes ill and can no longer care for their pets and family will not step in or cannot step in and take that animal. To release an animal to a shelter is extremely expensive for more than one animal and when you have bonded pairs, it even makes it more difficult. We have adopted two senior bonded pups. Best decision of our lives.
