Butter

Hi! You may have known me as Butter, but now I go by Howie, and my life is pretty sweet! When my person’s life changed and they couldn’t keep me, they made the hard but loving decision to ask AGA to help. I didn’t know what was next, but I hoped with all my heart for a soft landing, and that’s exactly what I got. My foster family told me I was calm, kind, and loved every human I met (they’re not wrong). I soaked up every car ride, wagged at every kind face, and waited patiently for the right family. Enter my new parents. They had loved a Golden named Marvin, and after saying goodbye to him, their hearts were finally ready. When we met, I knew, and so did they. A few days later, it was official: I was home.

These days, I’ve got a big backyard for fetch, daily walks, and visits to all the best dog-friendly places in town. People stop just to meet me, can you blame them? I’ve got a killer smile and, okay, maybe a slightly excessive kissing style (they’re a little… slurpy). But hey, I give love the way I feel it: BIG and honest. Thanks to everyone who helped me find my way home. I’m living the dream. With love (and maybe a few sloppy kisses), Butter… I mean Howie!!
