Background Story

Buster's tale isn't a rags-to-riches story, but it's certainly heartwarming. This stray dog from Marion County underwent a significant medical ordeal, including surgery to remove a large lump and repair a hernia. His foster family provided him with the care and love he needed during this challenging time. Today, Buster is healthy, happy, and ready for his next adventure.

The Big Break

Buster's picture caught the eye of Stephen, a producer for the play Oliver, set to be performed by the Willamette Valley Theatre Community and the Salem Orchestra in collaboration with Chemeketa Students. In the play, the "baddie" Bill Sikes is always accompanied by his bulldog, Bullseye. Buster has landed the role of Bullseye and is excited to star in this extraordinary production!
