A high-energy dog who loves playtime and walks is searching for a new home.

Buddy, a two-year-old Borzoi-cross Collie, is currently being cared for at Dogs Trust Snetterton in Norfolk.

He is described by the team as a "lovely boy" who enjoys fuss and play.

A spokesman for Dogs Trust Snetterton said: "Buddy is a lovely boy who likes a fuss and enjoys his walks and opportunities to play.

"He is currently worried by car travel and will need direct access to walks from his new home without the need to travel in a car and will need his new family to continue his training around cars which he has been doing well with at the centre."

Described as friendly, Buddy is looking for an active home where he can be kept both mentally and physically stimulated.

He could potentially live with another dog, depending on successful introductions at the centre.

However, he cannot be rehomed with cats or small animals.

Buddy is best suited to a household with children aged 14 or older, as he has shown some frustration behaviours such as jumping up, mouthing and humping when overstimulated.

He is not used to being left alone and will require someone who can be with him most of the time.

A secure garden would be preferred, though this could be a communal space.

He will need his new family to continue his training with going in the car, which those who work at the centre say has been going well.
