About Butterscotch

Meet Butterscotch, a sweet and mellow Pit Bull mix with a gentle demeanor. At about 2 years old and 52 lbs, she has a personality that captures hearts. Butterscotch’s journey began in Port Lavaca, Texas, where she was a pregnant stray. Thankfully, she found refuge in a shelter, where the compassionate staff allowed her to stay and give birth to her 8 pups. After they were adopted, it’s now her turn to find a loving home. Butterscotch is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to embark on a new adventure. She’s friendly with everyone, young and old. A special highlight of her day is spending time with a little girl who cuddles and watches TV with her. Butterscotch is also great with other dogs; she remains calm even around energetic ones and doesn’t mind cats at all. Her foster mom notes that she’s a well-behaved companion, rarely barks, is housebroken, and knows how to use a doggy door. Butterscotch embodies a calm, affectionate spirit, bringing both playfulness and tranquility to a home. Despite a name change from Buttercup to Butterscotch, it’s clear that her heart is in the right place. Inquire about making her part of your family today. Ready to fall in love?
