Butterfree - Retriever Dog for Adoption in Portland, Oregon

What my friends at OHS say about me:
I came all the way to OHS through the Second Chance Program.
I've had a hard time adjusting to shelter life and my friends here are still getting to know me. Soft voices, a calm home, and high-value treats will be the key to unlocking my true personality!
I am still learning how to walk on leash, especially in new environments that can be overwhelming. I need verbal encouragement, patience and of course treats from you to help me!
I can be worried and anxious in new surroundings. I may take time to adjust to a new environment.

If you have a vacant lap, I would be glad to keep it warm!
Are you ready for me and you to be stuck like glue?
Caution: I will steal your heart!


Shy and Nervous: I can be worried about new people, new surroundings and touch. I prefer to take things at my own pace and will need to live in a calm environment.

The type of home I'm looking for:
I can be easily surprised by unpredictable people. I may do best with children who can be slow and gentle with me.
