Meet Butkus! Butkus is a 6-year-old Great Dane mix with a huge heart and presence to match. This black-coated, extra-large fellow is the kind of dog people remember—not just for his size, but for his patient, easygoing personality and genuine love for people. He’s a gentle companion and especially loves being around children, readily soaking up attention and affection. Butkus wins everyone over with his good manners. He’s housebroken, walks calmly on a leash, and responds well to basic commands. You won’t find him pulling or dragging you along—he just wants to tag along at your pace. Whether you need a steadfast walking partner or a big, soft buddy to keep you company on movie nights, Butkus fits right in. He’s been vaccinated and neutered, so he’s ready to go home. All Butkus wants is a family who’ll appreciate his loyal spirit and give him a permanent spot in their lives. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
