    From a senior, abused pit bull mix in need of major surgery, to a cuddly, happy pup who has learned to live and love, Buffie is an inspiration to us all! Just months ago, Buffie was living in pain, her ears were scarred shut from neglected, constant, painful infections, and she had a hematoma on one ear. Love was an unknown concept to Buffie.

    But then, Buffie’s world changed when she touched the heart of a kind friend from the Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge, Inc. Upon rescue, Buffie had to undergo intense medical procedures. Her right ear was too damaged to save and required amputation. She also needed bilateral ear ablation (creating new ear canals).  

    Like so many of our animals, Buffie is a survivor and a winner who overcame years of abuse. She is also forgiving and loves unconditionally. For Buffie to be living the life of a rescued dog today, and one who has won the hearts of so many people through her participation in Tournament of Tails, is incredible. Her's is the ultimate underdog story of survival and triumph against the odds.

    Buffy is sweet and gentle and she is good with other dogs. She loves going on walks with her friends here at the shelter. She also loves cuddling up in her bed!Please visit the shelter and consider opening your home and your heart to this wonderful girl!
