About this Dog
Looking for a cuddle buddy who will melt into your arms and stay by your side through thick and thin? Buttercup might just be your perfect match. This sweet, soulful-eyed girl is as gentle and loving as they come. She may be petite, but her heart is huge—and all she wants is to be near her people. Buttercup is incredibly affectionate and thrives on closeness. Whether she’s curled up in your lap, snuggled under the covers, or nestled between you and the couch cushion, she finds peace simply by being near you. She doesn’t fuss when picked up—she actually prefers it! Carry her around and she’ll happily settle in, soaking up every moment. Currently healing from a broken foot, Buttercup has surprised everyone with her resilience. She’s still playful, curious, and full of spunky little adventures, especially when it comes to sniffing out every scent in sight. Her nose is always at work, exploring the world indoors and out. Buttercup is leash trained and quiet unless she’s confined, so she may not be the best fit for apartment or shared-wall living. She’s not a fan of being crated but does beautifully when allowed to snuggle close instead. She would love a home with someone who is around often or who can give her lots of cozy companionship. She’s also open to having a calm, furry friend but would do just fine as your one and only love, too. If you're looking for a devoted, blanket-burrowing, heartwarming companion, Buttercup is waiting to be your new best friend. Buttercup is from Texas. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page. If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.

Adopt Buttercup and Receive Buttercup's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Buttercup's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Buttercup's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Buttercup, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Buttercup's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Buttercup was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Buttercup’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Buttercup’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Buttercup’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
