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. She has beautiful green eyes, adorable little white socks, and a golden glow that makes her a total heart-stealer. But somehow, as cute as she is, her personality might be even better. 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.
Butterscotch is a people girl through and through. She opens up quickly with new friends and absolutely loves being close to her humans. Her foster describes her as a big cuddler who's always nearby, following her around like a little shadow and even sleeping by her head every night. She has such a calm, comforting presence about her that it's easy to forget she's even there... until you look down and realize she's quietly been keeping you company the whole time. And when it comes to affection, this girl is all in. Belly rubs are her absolute favorite activity, booty scratches are a close second, and if you happen to have an empty lap, don't be surprised if she decides it's hers.
While she's definitely a cuddle bug, she also enjoys getting outside and enjoying the fresh air. Her foster says they spend hours in the backyard together, where Butterscotch loves wandering around, soaking up the sunshine, and even taking the occasional dip in her little dog pool. Every evening she and a couple of the other foster dogs break out into zoomies together, happily chasing each other around before settling back down for the night. She isn't much of a toy dog, but hand her a good chew stick and she's perfectly content. Just don't be surprised if a squirrel runs by... suddenly this mellow little potato remembers she has some hunting dog mixed in there somewhere.
Ideal Home
Butterscotch would do well in either a house with a yard or an apartment, although she'd absolutely love having a backyard to explore since being outside is one of her favorite things. She would also do just as well soaking up all the attention as your one and only. Cats are a little too exciting for her, so we'd recommend a cat-free home.
Ongoing Health
Butterscotch is a healthy girl, up-to-date on all vaccinations and preventative care.
Training & Support
Butterscotch may need a little time to fully decompress after going home; she took a couple of weeks before really settling into foster care. Once she settled, she became the sweetest little shadow dog, and we honestly think that makes the bond even more special because when Butterscotch decides you're her person, she's completely devoted.
