Hi. My name is Butters. If you like big, floppy, loving boy dogs, then Iandamp;#39;m your man. andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;So much to tell you about my journey. I was a shy/hesitant boy when I first arrived - a bit scared of this big unknown world. Volunteers and staff have been working with me and ohhhhhh, how Iandamp;#39;ve realized the world and the people in it are good and kind.andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;I recently went on a field trip with 2 volunteers I did not know. No one knew how I would do. I saw a car and thought, andamp;quot;Wow, are these 2 new people adopting me and taking me home?andamp;quot; I was super excited and got in the car, settled in the back seat ready to go HOME. Iandamp;#39;m so good and calm in the car. Really, Iandamp;#39;m so good and calm wherever I go.andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;We got home and went for a walk. I used to fear leashes and walks but no more. I happily walked with my new person. Then, we went inside the house and eventually cuddled on the couch (they invited me on the couch). I cannot tell you how HAPPY I was. I truly thought I could never be happier. I was such a good boy. I never went potty in the house or even lifted my leg to mark AND there were lots of dog smells in that house! So, that is a very good sign I am housetrained.andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;They took me in the car again which I was happy about but what a shock to my system - we arrived back at the shelter. They were not my new family. I was not adopted. That is when I found out it was only a field trip. I didnandamp;#39;t want to get out of the car. Can you imagine my total dismay and sadness? They finally got me out of the car and since Iandamp;#39;m a well-behaved boy, I followed them inside the shelter. I was so sad.andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;So, Iandamp;#39;m asking you to please come and take me home for ever and ever. I am a loving, affectionate, playful, silly boy who is longing for a family I can call my own. andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;Love always,andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;Butters xoxo
