Butterscotch's Story

Butterscotch is an 11-month-old bundle of sunshine who is ready to bring her signature high energy and big heart into a new home. A charming Border Collie and Pit Bull mix, she displays the bright, busy, and focused intelligence characteristic of a Border Collie. Butterscotch is an incredibly friendly girl who assumes every person she meets is a new best friend, and she is eager to greet everyone, whether she is on-leash or over a barrier.<br/><br/>Because she is young and full of life, Butterscotch is definitely a "go-go-go" kind of girl. She is very affectionate and seeks out handling, though she is still learning how to manage her excitement. Sometimes, when she is having fun, she can get a bit bouncy and will jump up to say hello. She is very much a dog who loves to be in the middle of the action, whether she is chasing a ball, playing with her favorite tug rope, or simply following you around. Her personality is delightfully independent yet deeply social, making her a wonderful companion for someone who enjoys an active lifestyle.<br/><br/>Butterscotch is doing great with her training and is currently working on her leash manners and crate training. While she is social with other dogs, her play style is very high-energy and vocal, which means she can sometimes come on a little strong when meeting new canine friends. She does best with dogs who can handle her enthusiasm or provide gentle feedback if she gets too rowdy. She has shown she is very respectful when other dogs correct her and she is happy to move on and keep playing. She has no issues with resource guarding and is generally indifferent to loud noises or new environments, making her a brave and steady adventure partner.<br/><br/>The ideal home for Butterscotch is one that can match her energetic spirit and provide the structure she needs to grow into a well-mannered adult. She would thrive with someone who has some experience with dogs and can help her channel her Border Collie drive into productive play and training. If you are looking for a smart, wiggly, and endlessly loving girl to accompany you on all your daily activities, Butterscotch is ready to be your constant companion.
