Psst… night owl. Hi. Bubba here.
I'm a two-year-old dreamer waiting for someone to share quiet evenings and lazy pool days with—someone who'll let me love them through presence alone.
They wrote that I love to play. Understatement. I'd hike, fetch, and nap with you, in that order.
I'm a Garden City local, just waiting on the right person.
Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.
Who knows — by Labor Day I might be napping on somebody's couch. I'd love it to be near you, one way or another.
Either way, thank you for seeing me today. That part mattered more than you know. — Bubba

About Bubba
Location: Syosset, NY This 2 years old ACD mix is up for anything, whether it's chilling in the doggie pool or hanging back with a kong or bone. He loves playing with toys and will amuse himself by throwing around a ball when you aren't available to play fetch with him. Looking for a chill night in? Bubba is down for that, too! He's the perfect tv companion and enjoys hanging out near his people in the evenings. Energy-wise he is on the calmer side of medium, so he doesn't need to run 5ks to feel content. He currently has a few dog house mates and would love to have a sibling of his own. He also seems to not mind cats if he sees one walking about outside. Bubba is well behaved, rarely barks, and has even completed a beginner training class! He's great on leash, knows basic commands, and does well meeting new dogs. He loves car rides and has done well out shopping, which has been good for working on his confidence around new people. He can currently be a little timid around unfamiliar adults, but gets a kick out of watching kids especially if they are playing nearby or doing something goofy. Bubba was pulled from a shelter with his siblings back when he was an 8 week old pup and neither mom nor dad were there with them, so unfortunately breed mix is a question mark. His siblings had markings more typical of ACD mixes, so it's safe to say that's in there somewhere! At a lean 40lbs, he's a perfect medium size and likely won't get much bigger. Bubba is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots/monthly preventatives. He is house trained with the use of a bell, and does well crated for short periods during the day with a kong to keep him occupied. He prefers the couch overnight and does well sleeping through the night. He sleeps through fireworks. Doesn't mind taking naps in the crate. He can sometimes want to steal the ball from house mates. He lets kids pet him. Sometimes he will try and herd other dogs if they allow it. Not a strong prey drive. Will playfully chase a bunny .. Come meet your new best friend Bubba today!
