If you're looking for a wrinkly, cuddly, booty-scratch-loving best friend who will stick by your side and fill your days with sweetness, Butterscotch is ready to wiggle her way right into your heart!
Butterscotch is sweet as pie and a perfectly squatty, slightly chunky little potato with the most incredible wrinkles you've ever seen. Her beautiful green eyes, adorable little white socks, and golden glow make her a total heart-stealer. She's the kind of dog that quietly works her way into your heart until one day you realize she's become your favorite little shadow.
Butterscotch is about 3 years old, weighs around 55 lbs, and we believe she may be a Beagle/Lab mix. She is a people-pleaser through and through, opening up quickly with new friends and absolutely loving to be close to her humans. Her foster describes her as a big cuddler who's always nearby, following her foster like a little shadow and even sleeping by her head every night. She has a calm, comforting presence, and when it comes to affection, Butterscotch is all in. Belly rubs are her absolute favorite activity, booty scratches are a close second, and she's convinced she's a lap dog.
While she's definitely a cuddle bug, she also enjoys getting outside and enjoying the fresh air. She loves wandering around the backyard, soaking up the sunshine, and even taking the occasional dip in her little dog pool. Every evening, she and a couple of other foster dogs break out into zoomies together before settling back down for the night. She's not much of a toy dog, but she's perfectly content with a good chew stick.
Butterscotch has done wonderfully living with several other dogs of different ages and sizes and enjoys having canine companions around. She's not looking for a 24/7 playmate and prefers a companion with a cool, calm, collected tempo. She would also do well as an only dog, soaking up all the attention. Cats, however, are a little too exciting for her, so we'd recommend a cat-free home.
Butterscotch may need a little time to fully decompress after going home, as she took a couple of weeks before really settling into foster care. Once she did, she became the sweetest little shadow dog, completely devoted to her person.
Butterscotch would do well in either a house with a yard or an apartment, although she'd absolutely love having a backyard to explore. Whether she's sunbathing, rolling around in the grass, quietly following you from room to room, or convincing you that one more belly rub is absolutely necessary, she's simply happiest being with her people.
