Butler survived a severe hoarding situation in Florida, where he and over 140 dogs lived in distressing conditions. Despite this rough start, Butler has proven to be resilient and adaptable in his foster home, warming up quickly and now happily responding to his name. He weighs about 14 pounds and, at around four years old, has started to thrive, especially when he's out in the yard with other dogs. Butler prefers a home with another playful canine companion; he shares a special bond with his friend Maddox, also available for adoption. Sudden noises and changes can startle Butler, so a calm and patient household will help him continue to gain confidence. Young children aren’t the right fit for him, but he gets along well with older kids and appreciates gentle affection. He’s still learning what it means to live in a stable home, so supervision and patience will go a long way as Butler discovers the comfort of everyday routines. If you want a sweet, affectionate friend who appreciates a quieter pace and canine pals, Butler might be your match. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
