"Butchie"

Muscular, strong, handsome….honestly I am just a big goofball. I was minding my own business, walking around by myself, and ended at the local pound of a ritzy suburb right here.

When no one came looking for me, I was lucky that Save-A-Pet took me in. At least here they don’t discriminate based on who your mommy and daddy are.

I love running around and am kind of an affectionate boy. If I am in my kennel, I always get excited when I see dog walkers and tend to splash in my water bucket.

All I really want is to be able to spend some time with people. I do not seem to care for other dogs but let me tell you, that’s even better for you because you can have me all to yourself!

Butchie is about a year old, neutered, up-to-date on routine shots and rabies, heartworm negative and on preventative and micro-chipped.

Thanksgiving is just a couple of weeks away…give him and all our residents an extra reason to be grateful--having a new family! Don’t forget all his friends at www.saveapetil.org or even better, come out to our adoption center!
