This is a SCAM of the worst kind! This con involves making MONEY off of homeless dogs. BUDDIES is listed as a RESCUE but in actuality is a front for a supposed rehabilitation program and sanctuary that charges up to $1,500.00 per dog.
These people troll Facebook looking for dogs that are to be euthanized but have sponsorship ($) to save them. The good folks at BUDDIES then solicit for the dog to come live at their "sanctuary" to be "rehabilitated" by Mr. Wandell, but he is not certified in anything, does not have ANY credentials and has a questionable background of breeding and hoarding. The dogs are then put in chicken coop like kennels and small crates and left to languish, given barely enough food to live (and some HAVEN'T), are loaded with internal parasites such as heartworms and intestinal worms, and covered in fleas. They do NOT receive any personal attention, excersise, toys, blankets or treats.
