Meet Button!Button, aptly named because she was found as a stray at Buttonwood Park, is a 2yo 60lb lab mix. She's shy and SUPER timid with strangers at first (fair - we love an introverted queen), but once she warms up and comes out of her shell? She's like a COMPLETELY different dog.A certified silly goose. An absolute goober. Queen of the Zoomies. She is HILARIOUS to watch and interact with because she's just such an odd creature - obviously, we're saying that with UTMOST affection because her strangeness is so endearing.Button isn't overly affectionate so she won't be a velcro dog but she is a sucker for giving face kisses and she LOVES if you pat her butt like you're playing bongos. She LOVES tennis balls. She's not great at catching them but she's doing her best. She's super food motivated, learns quickly and, once you earn her trust, she's your best friend.She enjoys her walks and does pretty well on a leash for a young lady of her size. She can be a little pully but she listens to corrections well and has a good foundation of cues - sit, come, and wait, mostly. She's like a nosy neighbor at times - if she hears an interesting noise, she HAS to know what's going on whether it involves her or not. Button has shown zero issues with cats - she doesn't even want to make eye contact with the growly ones but has no issues going nose to nose with the nice ones. She hasn't been officially tested with other dogs yet (we'll be doing that in the coming days) but we imagine it will be much the same as with people - timid at first, especially with bouncier "in your face" dogs but otherwise fine. Kids 12+ though exceptions may be made for the right family with the right experience.To apply, visit foreverpaws.com and click adopt to download our application.
