Hi my name is Butch
Rebekah & Jose saved me from a home where I lived most my life in a small kennel, i knew I had a lot of love to give but it wasn’t received until I was saved. Mum & dad are trying to find my forever home. I grew up with my two sisters, & my foster family has 5 other doggies they pay no attention to me because they’re seniors and all I want to do is play and sunbathe. I might have resourcing aggression, towards toys and food but please don’t overlook the love I have to share. I know with the right amount of training, and everlasting love you show me I can be a good boy and apart of the family.

Rehoming reason details (if necessary):
We took on Butch & his two sisters on New years. Saving them from a home that was being evicted, owners were gonna let them lose on the streets. We decided to bring them to our home where we have 5 senior pitbuls. Our goal was to find these 3 a home and we’ve struggled to find one, with this website we are hopeful and putting our trust here. We fear our foster dogs would end up in the wrong hands or abused and we know this program goes above and beyond to avoid that happening. We love all our dogs and if we had the means we’d keep them all!
