About Butter

Butter is an energetic one-year-old Golden Retriever who thrives on attention. He found his way to the shelter because the presence of a young child and another dog in his previous home was overwhelming for him. Butter prefers to be the only pet, as he isn’t keen on sharing toys or food. He is housebroken and enjoys playtime, but he’s still learning how to walk on a leash. This lively boy loves to run around the yard to burn off his youthful energy. He’s gaining good leash manners, but he’s still a bit jumpy when seeking affection. Butter enjoys playing fetch and will drop toys on command. An adult-only home where he can be the sole focus would suit him best. With the right training and guidance, Butter has the potential to be a cherished companion. The shelter operates by appointment only, so interested adopters should complete an application prior to scheduling a meeting. The staff is friendly and happy to assist with any questions. Your new best friend is just one click away.
