*From Foster: “ He is seriously the best behaved dog, I have ever met in my life! “ *
Butkis (aka Bear) was originally in an owner hoarding situation in West Orange, NJ, and we rescued him and some of the others when the owner passed away. His foster loves him, but has 2 other big dogs and cannot take on a third.
At 11 months and ~75 lbs, he is fully grown and a very gentle and friendly boy. He’s got it all - housebroken, vaccinated, neutered, and crate-trained! He LOVES people and loves to be cuddled and pet. He also loves his foster brother Mugsy, and loves to play Wrestlemania with him! He's very affectionate, and when people come over he may jump and say hello and try to kiss you and make friends. He doesn't bark much, and is a pretty quiet boy. He loves chew toys the most, and plays fetch outside. He's a good boy in the car and very calm, and walks beautifully on a leash without pulling. He really has shown NO aggression with food, toys, or anything at all - he's a lover not a fighter!
He IS a puppy, so we do see the occasional sock being played with, or slipper being carried around. He can easily be re-directed with a toy though and he's happily on his way. He is a very docile dog - great with people, so he will probably do well with kids, but should be tested. Same with cats. He already knows Sit, Stop that, Come, Stay! He's very smart and foster says he's been easy to train. He sleeps through the night in his crate, but foster only crates so he and his other dogs don't wrestle all night.
In the evenings he will come on the sofa with dad and his 3 brothers - they all snuggle and want to be near. Butkus loves the affection, and will do well in any home that provides snuggles and hugs. Another companion dog would be welcomed but not a requirement. Despite his size, this is an EASY dog that is trained in all the basics and is a gentle soul. Come meet him now and see what I mean!!
