Special adoption considerations: Butterscotch is a truly Lucky Dog. He tested positive for heartworms, but landed in a place where heartworm treatment is provided! Heartworm is not contagious to people or other pets, but results from mosquito bites. Heartworm, if left untreated, is life threatening, but after treatment, dogs that were heartworm positive should suffer no significant long-term effects so long as they are kept on a monthly heartworm preventative. Heartworm dogs can resume full active and normal lives, but need to be kept calm for 4-6 weeks after treatment. We are happy to discuss where in the treatment process this Lucky Dog is in right now! Just email the adoption coordinator - the address is at lower left!
Butterscotch is Looking For: A family who appreciates a handsome, serious‑faced gentleman with a soft heart underneath. I'm a 5‑year‑old Boxer/Bulldog mix who may look stoic at first, but I'm really a sweet, loyal companion who loves calm walks, cozy naps, and being close to my people. If you want a steady, affectionate dog with a noble look and an even sweeter soul, I'm ready to go home with you.

What My Foster Says About Me: Will update once we have a foster!

Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training.
TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $475, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations, spay/neuter, and heartworm treatment. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online at bit.ly/adoptaluckydog

Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament.
