Patient Updates
Buddy has gotten so big you may not recognize him! But how could you miss those big eyes? He is now in the biggest pre release pool at the facility and preparing for release!
Buddy is still as adorable as ever and you can’t miss those big eyes staring at you from his pre release pool. He is gaining weight and competing like a champ!
Buddy is now in a pool with his new found friend Wolfe McTam. He loves life in his new pool so much that he prefers to stay in the water at all times, even while sleeping!
Hi Buddy! Good to see you’re doing so well! Everyone is rooting for you! Love you! xoxo
Hope you are doing great back home, Buddy!!! Wishing you a fantastic life ahead! Thanks to everyone as always for taking care of him. How wonderful he’s back in the ocean and doing good!
