My name is Button!

Yes, she’s as cute as a button. And yes, she really is 4 .

Button is a tiny young adult with a huge love for cuddling and being close to her people. She’s sweet, affectionate, and happiest curled up in a warm lap or tucked safely beside you. Found as a stray in rural Texas, she somehow held onto the softest, gentlest personality.

She’s dog friendly with other small dogs, but because of her size, we’re thoughtful about her social circle. We haven’t introduced her to larger dogs, and we won’t be tossing her into chaotic group play. Button deserves calm, safe interactions and people who understand that 3 lbs requires common sense.

She's loving her foster brother and sister.  We are working on potty training and leash training.  She's not great at either yet.

Because she’s so petite, Button will be placed with her size in mind. Homes with very young children will need to be evaluated carefully, as accidental bumps and falls can be a real risk for dogs this small. She’s not fragile emotionally, but physically? Yes. And that matters.

If you’re looking for a loving, pocket-sized companion who wants nothing more than to be adored and protected, Button might be your girl.

Tiny dog. Big heart. Zero doubt she knows she’s special.

This dog is up to date on vaccinations and is spayed or neutered. (Please note: Puppies under 3 months old may not be sterilized prior to adoption. If this is the case, your adoption coordinator will provide guidance on the process.)

To adopt or learn more about this dog, you must complete an adoption application, which can be found on our website: www.sandypawsrescue.com.

PLEASE READ:

    •    If a dog or puppy is listed, they are currently available for adoption. However, they may already be pending an adoption, and their profile may not yet reflect this.

    •    All information is accurate to the best of our knowledge as of the posting date.

    •    Unless explicitly stated, Sandy Paws Rescue does not guarantee the breed of any dog. Breeds listed are educated guesses made by shelter staff, volunteers, or veterinarians. Many of our dogs are mixed breeds, often with pit bull-type genetics, resulting in a wide variety of physical traits and temperaments.

Our dogs come from various situations, such as kill shelters, owner surrenders, or as strays. It is likely both parents were mixed breeds as well.

Sandy Paws Rescue does not have a public shelter in Massachusetts. Our dogs reside in private foster homes or boarding kennels in the South until adopted. Many dogs are spoken for prior to transport or release from state-mandated isolation.

The FIRST step in adopting from Sandy Paws Rescue is to submit a completed adoption application.
