I’ve rescued Dobes who acted like they didn’t even understand what humans were but within a month, they couldn’t imagine life without one of their very own.
Dogs want to be with people.
That will overpower everything else.
You both will be just fine.
Buford is a lucky guy and I think part of his ‘over-exuberance’ is that he already knows that and can’t quite wrap his mind around the concept that he *belongs*, just yet.
