Butch

This dog is currently out of state but will be transported to New England shortly with no additional travel costs. The long distance adoption process includes talking to the foster they are living with in the south. Roughly 90% of our dogs are successfully long distance adopted and 10% adopted locally. **Please read Butch's entire profile, which includes a link to the adoption application at the end. Thank you!** Meet Butch - a 3 year old, Hound / English Pointer mix pup who weighs 45 lbs. This sweet boy came to us through an owner surrender. And this poor boy has been looking for a new forever family for months now! His foster shares: "Butch was part of a forced surrender and he is ready to find his forever family! He is a fun guy who likes to play. He is well socialized and gets along great with other dogs, and does really well with people. He loves being the center of attention and making new friends! We aren’t sure if he is house trained, so he might need some work on that in his fur-ever home. He does okay on a leash but some extra training would be helpful for him to really shine. He would do well in a house with a yard, just to help him transition to being in a home. He should do well with kids as he doesn’t jump too much, but we aren’t sure about cats. He hasn’t had the best life to date, but we know a family is out there who will be able to give him a great one!!” All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be. To adopt or learn more about Butch, you must fill out an adoption application.

Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid. If you are considering a dog but don't apply right away please make sure to search for the dog by name if the link you have no longer works. Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.
