Why Not Travel Store - Pet of the Month for April 2025

This is Buddy, our Why Not Travel Store’s Pet of the Month for April, 2025. 

Hi, I’m Buddy and I was born in January, 2021.  I am a Miniature Australian Shepherd and I currently weigh 21 pounds and won't be getting any bigger.  My dad is a Jake Wright who belongs to a friend of my humans.  They picked me out of a litter of three puppies, and I have been with them since I was twelve weeks old.  I’m pretty smart too and can follow commands of: sit, shake, lay down, play dead, give me five, and wave.  I’m still learning all the time new tricks.  I love to be outside on our 25 acres and anywhere else I can be, but most important, I love to be sleeping with my parents wherever they are.

The Why Not Travel Store is glad Buddy is joining our Pet of the Month pack of winning pet pictures. Congratulations on being The Why Not Travel Store's April 2025 Pet of the Month and thanks for visiting us Buddy!!
