Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Buttercup, an adorable female Shar Pei mix around 1 year old and only 38 pounds. Her friendly nature makes her the life of any gathering, easily mingling with both people, other dogs, and even cats. She does great with kids too, and is gentle when taking treats. She is doing wonderful with house and crate training, she is still young so things are a work in progress. She is very smart and reward oriented, whether it's a small snack or a pay on the head she does well with positive reinforcement. Buttercup's unique blend of friendliness, independence, and gentleness makes her an ideal companion. Imagine coming home to her wagging tail and the unconditional love she's ready to offer. Adopt Buttercup and gain a loyal friend for life!
Buttercup has not yet been spayed but is due to be soon. She is already microchipped and has been kept current on vaccines and monthly preventatives. You can email julianshumate@gmail.com with any questions or fill out an application here: https://humanesocietyofwilkes.org/adopt/application/julians. To ensure your application was received please email the foster home. You can expect an email response within a week of applying.
