About Butterscotch

Meet Butterscotch, a resilient bulldog who has overcome serious challenges. Sadly, she was neglected and used for breeding, left in rough shape. She arrived at our care with long nails, painful sores, and untreated medical issues including chronic ear infections and dry eye. After prompt veterinary attention, she's on her way to recovery with ongoing treatment for her eye and future surgery planned for her ears. This gentle 37-pound girl enjoys low strolls and snuggling on dog beds, proving to be quite the nap enthusiast despite her snoring. Butterscotch gets along well with other gentle dogs and thrives in a calm environment. We’re eager to find a bulldog-savvy foster home for her, where she can recover in comfort. A loving temporary or forever home would mean the world to this sweet girl. Click apply to start the adoption process.
