About Butter

Meet Butter, your new favorite little sidekick. This lovable goofball is a small bundle of joy, packed with personality. He’s a playful puppy who knows how to have fun, but he also enjoys curling up for a good nap after some zoomies outside. Incredibly affectionate, Butter loves to be close to his people. His preferred travel method is being carried over your shoulder, where he might attempt a little climbing adventure onto your head. Consider yourself warned! This young pup is eager to learn and is making progress with potty training. While crate training is still a work in progress, he’s doing well. Butter has met other dogs without a hitch so far and tends to ignore the cats in his foster home. With his playful spirit and endearing snuggles, Butter is ready to bring a splash of joy into any home. He would thrive with adopters who can continue his training, provide plenty of love, and enjoy having a tiny shadow with a great sense of humor. He will be neutered and up-to-date on vaccines before adoption. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
