Butterball is a recent arrival, brought in as an area stray who went unclaimed by his owner. This very good boy isn’t letting his hardship get him down, though! He is eager to begin his next chapter with a committed forever family that will give him the love and devotion he so deserves. He is social, friendly, and affectionate, knows some basic commands already, and seems to be house trained, too. He is thought to be a Shepherd mix. Butterball isn’t very plump or round as his name might imply, weighing a healthy 45-50 lbs., but he does have a buttery soft, thick, luxurious coat that is a joy to pet! Those chocolate brown eyes will melt your heart, too. Butterball gets along with the other dogs he has met so far, seems to love just about everyone, and is quiet and well behaved in his kennel. He would probably be great around children. What a dream! At just 3-5 years old, he is past all the unruly puppy behavior of his youth, but still has many years ahead to enjoy with you!
If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first step should be to complete an Adoption Application at www.caninerescue.org. *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application. It takes a lot of time to process the applications, so we ask for your patience while we do so. If you see that the dog you were interested in has been adopted it means there were many applications for that dog and we did not get as far as processing your application before a home was found. We welcome you to apply again if you see another dog that interests you. If you have a question, please email us at adoptions@caninerescue.org. It is much easier and quicker for us to respond by email, as we receive many phone calls each day.
We do adopt out of state, however we do not transport or ship dogs. Potential adopter must be able and willing to travel to the Rescue to meet the dog they are interested in.
*PLEASE double check all of the phone numbers that you provide as if they are incorrect, we will be unable to process your application. Please also let your references know that someone from NCCR will be calling them. Most adoption team members call from their personal phone so advise your references that there may be an unknown number or a private number calling them.

Additional adoption info
We try to match each dog with its new home so that chances for a successful, lifetime placement are much higher. Each interested party is asked to fill out an application (www.caninerescue.org) which is then reviewed and processed. References are required.
