Butterscotch is a happy-go-lucky girl looking for her perfect home! Some of her favorite things include playing with her foster siblings (human and canine) and going for leisurely walks with her person and chewing on a good bone. She’s a perfect angel on a leash and because she is deaf she prefers to stay with you at all times!<br/><br/>Her beginning was anything but easy and as a result is still working on her manners. She has mastered waiting in her kennel before being released and waiting at doors before walking outside. We are still working on hand signals but she’s learning quickly how to look at her people for directions! <br/><br/>Some things to know! <br/><br/>•Butterscotch spent over half of her short life in a windowless shelter, as a result she takes a couple weeks to fully settle in to a new space. Her perfect home would be with someone who is able to be home with her often and with another secure dog that will set good boundaries as sometimes she does not realize how hard she’s playing. <br/><br/>•She is currently on anxiety medication to help her settle enough to work through new things. She is fearless, though sometimes struggles with overstimulation and needs a patient home willing to put in the work she needs! She can eventually be eased off of her medication. <br/><br/>•she is technically kennel trained, although will cry in her kennel for awhile at first. When she first came to her foster home, she did best when she was with her calm dog friends to show her that everything is okay. <br/><br/>•Butterscotch can jump a 4ft fence and has escaped kennels.<br/><br/>•Can live peacefully with cats that set clear boundaries, though will try to play!<br/><br/>•LOVES kids, but needs to be reminded to stay down and be calm.<br/><br/>•Butterscotch’s best friend is her Aussie foster sister. She plays well with other dogs that match her energy level but that will also still set boundaries when play time is done. <br/><br/>Butterscotch has so much love to give and would love a family that is willing to put in the work she needs to thrive!<br/><br/>***PLEASE READ*** WE DO NOT RESPOND TO PETFINDER OR EMAIL INQUIRIES.
