Meet Butter (also known as Carcone or Buttercup), an irresistibly scruffy young pup who’s as soft-hearted as he is adorable. Found as a stray with his two brothers in Houston, TX, Butter is now thriving in a loving foster home in Colorado and dreaming of a forever family to call his own.
🐶 Why Butter Will Melt Your Heart:
- Breed: Terrier mix (scruffy coat, small to medium size)
- Age: Under 1 year
- Personality: Affectionate, playful, toy-loving cuddle bug
- Temperament: Shy at first, but warms up quickly and bonds deeply with his people
- Energy Level: Moderate — loves toys, playtime, and doggy wrestling sessions
🦴 Social Life:
- Dogs: Excellent with other dogs — he currently attends doggy daycare and thrives in a social setting! He’d love a dog sibling in his forever home.
- Cats: Not tested
- Kids: Would do well with gentle, respectful children who give him space to warm up
🎓 Training & Home Life:
- Potty Training: In progress — he’s mastered the doggy door but still needs patience and consistency
- Crate Training: Crate nervous — cries when left alone, so a family with time and patience (and no shared walls) would be ideal
- Leash Skills: In progress — he’s learning and improving every day!
🩺 Health Notes:
Healthy, happy, and ready for love!
💡 Butter’s Ideal Home:
Butter needs a kind and patient adopter who will help build his confidence and continue his training. He would thrive in a home with another playful pup and a consistent routine. A fenced yard and a calm environment will help him feel secure as he continues to grow into the amazing dog he’s meant to be.
