About Buttons

Buttons is a vibrant 5-year-old Cairn Terrier mix weighing just 8 pounds, but her big personality and confidence shine way beyond her size. She joined our rescue when her previous owner passed away, and through it all, she has remained cheerful and ready for her next adventure. While she arrived with her best buddy Hank, we know both dogs can thrive independently or together, as long as they have another playful pup around. Friendly and confident, Buttons quickly becomes the center of attention wherever she goes. She seeks a loving family that appreciates her spirited nature and willingness to engage in play. Buttons gets along with cats, dogs, and children, making her a versatile addition to any home. If you’re interested in this little dynamo, submit the online adoption application on our website. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
