Female Dog, Labrador Retriever
Labrador Retriever / Shepherd / Mixed (Medium Coat)
Description:
Beautiful Buttercup is a 1 year old labrador mix and weighs between 50-55 lbs. Sweet, affectionate, and ready for fun, she is a great addition for an active and fun-loving family. Buttercup is housetrained and cratetrained. She enjoys her walks and is working on her leash skills. She’s not much of a treat girly but takes them politely when she’s interested and has not shown any food aggression. This pretty pumpkin would do best in a home with a fenced in yard. She loves being outside and needs lots of opportunities to stretch her legs. Buttercup is also no stranger to zoomies and has a happy, excitable play style. Buttercup is eager to meet new doggy friends and find a playmate. Her excitement can be a little overwhelming for some dogs though. She will do well with an easy going dog who meshes with her energetic nature. Buttercup would also do fine as a solo dog with fun-loving human pals who provide lots of toys and games to occupy her. This sweet girl was a stray and then in the shelter for much of her life and is catching up on all the training (and human connection) she missed. A patient family while she learns the ropes of good doggy behavior is a must. We recommend children in the home be 10+ due to her play style - it can be a bit jumpy. Buttercup has so much love to give and is hoping for a family who can guide her to being the bestest girl.

Can you open your heart and home for a few weeks to homeless shelter dog? Remember, by fostering a dog, you save TWO lives — that of your foster dog, and that of the dog who takes his place in the shelter! Come to a Meet & Greet and find out if fostering is for you — there's no reward quite like the feeling that you've saved a life ... or two!
