Personality:
Butterscotch is a larger than life young lad who is full of beans and always on the go. Playful, curious, and bursting with personality, he loves being part of the action and can often be found chasing staff around to see what exciting things they are up to. He is a big fan of toys, enjoys a good chew session, and absolutely melts for ear scratchies. With his happy attitude and zest for life, Butterscotch is guaranteed to keep a smile on your face.
Tamariki – 10+ as further training needed.
Cats – Cats ok with correct intros and training.
Kūri – Friendly. Ongoing socialisation needed.
Stock/poultry – Untested.
Size – Currently 7.15kgs. Likely to mature large - XL.
Ideal home:
Butterscotch is looking for an experienced home that can provide clear boundaries, ongoing training, and plenty of positive outlets for his energy. Due to his size and enthusiasm, he would be best suited to a home with older children who can confidently interact with a big, playful dog. Continued socialisation and enrichment will help him grow into a well rounded adult, and with the right guidance, this clever boy has all the ingredients to become an incredible companion.
Life is always sweeter with a little Butterscotch around
