Buddy the ugly dog in need of a home once more

A dog described as “too ugly to love” again needs a new owner. Buddy the lurcher, who has odd-coloured eyes and is deaf, found a home in 2015 after at least 1,000 potential owners turned him down over twoyears.

Chalmers Moffat, 80, who took him in, has died. He said after adopting Buddy: “I need him as much as he needs me.”

The Dogs Trust, in West Calder, West Lothian, is now seeking a new home for Buddy. Call the rehoming centre on 0300 303 0292 or visit www.dogstrust.org.uk for more information.
