Butterbean
Dogs – He has played well with others, so let's set up a meet and greet!
Cats – Passed his cat test!
Kids – Older kids, 14 and up
Butterbean showed up in a permanent tuxedo, which feels about right for a boy this fancy. The catch is nobody told him formalwear means good manners, so this dapper gentleman is really a seventy-pound goofball who would climb right into your lap if you let him. The staff here are completely smitten.
He is young, happy, and built for a good romp, so he would be over the moon with a yard to zip around and a person who loves to play. He is a total riot at daycare, where the crew adores him and the zoomies come out in full force. He is house-trained, up for anything, and adamant that a game of tug is the best thing life has to offer.
Butterbean is ready to find his people and settle in for good. If a dapper, snuggly goofball sounds like your kind of happy, come say hello before this handsome boy is spoken for!

Not Quite Ready To Adopt?
You can make an immeasurable impact by opening your home and your heart to an animal in need. Fostering is a great opportunity to introduce a pet into your home without making a lifelong commitment. Many of our foster humans end up adopting their fostered animals, but many also choose to just provide the temporary shelter and love our animals need to get through a trying time.
