A Wedding Gazebo!
We’re getting a gazebo!
We will be getting a gazebo put behind the building.
Jan Bierman (The Buddy Foundation's founder and former Circuit Court Judge) will be performing weddings at the gazebo in the future.
So if you plan on getting married and want all your friends and their 4-legged friends to come, you will now be able to!
(or if you want our 4-legged friends from the shelter to come, we can do that too)

It's our 1st Anniversary!
The Buddy Foundation has been helping animals since 1995.
But it was one year ago that we were able to open the doors of this special safe haven for animals.
Help us celebrate this milestone!
Cocoa Mulch in Garden –Danger to pets
From http://www.aspca.org
Is Cocoa Bean Mulch toxic to dogs?
Dogs who consume enough cocoa bean shell mulch could potentially develop signs similar to that of chocolate poisoning, including vomiting and diarrhea. In cases where very large amounts of mulch have been consumed, muscle tremors or other more serious neurological signs could occur.
Cocoa Mulch
Many gardeners use cocoa bean shells—a by-product of chocolate production—in landscaping. Popular for its attractive odor and color, cocoa mulch also attracts dogs with its sweet smell, and like chocolate, it can pose problems for our canine companions. Depending on the amount involved, ingestion of cocoa mulch can cause a range of clinical signs, from vomiting, diarrhea and muscle tremors to elevated heart rate, hyperactivity and even seizures. Consider using a less-toxic alternative, such as shredded pine, cedar or hemlock bark
