HAVE YOU SEEN BUDDY? Buddy is a 7-month-old Sheltie. He was visiting in Brownsville Sunday, when a loud noise scared him and he hasn’t been seen since. His family misses him and is offering a reward to anyone who can help them locate Buddy. Here’s a picture. Please call 731-772-5487 or 731-431-1609 is you’ve seen him.
