Meet Butters, our adorable 1 year old male Shar-pei/ boxer mix. Butters is the perfect mix of playful some times, but cool calm and collected at others. He loves to make new friends, and doesn't know a stranger! With such a sweet personality and handsome looks, we're hoping Butters won't have to sit at the shelter for too long!
Butters came to us through no fault of his own. His previous owner could no longer afford to care for a dog, and made the tough decision to find a better fit for Butters. In his previous home, Butter lived with cats, dogs, and kids, and loved having all of his buddies around! His family says their wish is for him to find a new home where he can continue to be surrounded by friends, as that is when he's happiest.
Butters has started on his training, but still needs so more work to be fully trained. He isn't yet fully housebroken, and still needs to learn his basic commands. Butters is still in his puppy phase, and has too much energy to just sit bored at home all day. He would really thrive with an owner that likes to be active, and will dedicate time to keeping Butters moving. Trust us, Butters is well worth the effort!
As previously mentioned, Butters was around multiple other animals in his previous home and got along with them all. However, we still always recommend a meet and greet with any potential siblings, so you can be sure this dog is the right one for your family. We have made Butters a few canine buddies here at the shelter, and noticed that he does a good job at adapting to their personalities. With more active dogs, Butter loves to chase them - with calmer or older dogs, Butters is content to just walk alongside them. He seems like the type of boy that could be happy just about anywhere!
Butters is up to date on his vaccinations, and is ready to get the heck out of the shelter! If you think you can provide the loving home that Butters deserves, then stop by and meet him today!
