My story

Meet Butterfly! Beautiful inside and out, Butterfly is a gentle soul who radiates joy and hope wherever she goes. Even after arriving at the shelter as a lost stray, she never lost her sparkle. She greets her favorite volunteer with a happy heart and trots to the play yard with the perfect mix of spunk and grace. On walks, Butterfly loves exploring the golf course and then settling in for cozy snuggles right after—your personal little cuddlebug. Butterfly is the strong independent type and would do best in a home as the only dog.Full of wisdom yet bursting with youthful zest, Butterfly is ready to start her next chapter with someone who loves life as much as she does. Butterfly spent some time in a foster home and this is what her foster parent had to say:Butterfly is potty trained, loves to sleep in bed with her person, and knows sit and stay! She is great for getting harnessed and will sit and lick your hands while you get her ready for her outing. She loves to cuddle.If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a big heart and a bright spirit, Butterfly can’t wait to fly home with you.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt BUTTERFLY, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
