Nutter Butter - Rottweiler and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Aldie, Virginia

Meet Nutter Butter!

ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:

Nutter Butter has already traveled farther than many of us! This sweet Rottweiler mix came to FOHA all the way from Mexico, and she even has her own passport to prove it.

Her journey began when she was found wandering along a dirt road with three other puppies in Pedro Escobedo, Queretaro. Eventually, Nutter Butter made the big trip to Virginia, and now there's just one destination left on her itinerary: a home of her own.

For a puppy, Nutter Butter is surprisingly laid-back and well behaved. She walks beautifully on leash, is crate trained, and has a lovely, easygoing way about her. When she's somewhere new, she likes to take a moment to sniff, explore, and figure things out. Once she's satisfied with her investigation, though, she's ready to come in for love and affection.

Of course, she is still a puppy! Nutter Butter can get mouthy when she's excited, and those puppy teeth can be sharper than she realizes. Thankfully, she's been easy to redirect onto a toy or with a treat. And speaking of treats... this girl LOVES food. That enthusiasm should come in handy as she continues learning all the important skills that go along with growing into a well-mannered adult dog.

Sweet, affectionate, well traveled, and equipped with both a passport and an adorable name, Nutter Butter is ready for her next adventure.

HOW AM I WITH DOGS:

I was originally found with three other puppies, but my friends at FOHA are still getting to know me and learning more about my preferences with other dogs.

HOW AM I WITH CATS:

Unknown - just ask my friends at FOHA about a cat test.

HOW AM I WITH KIDS:

Unknown. I'm still a puppy and can currently be mouthy during play, so my friends at FOHA can help determine whether I'd be a good match for your family.

I KNOW THE FOLLOWING COMMANDS:

I'm still a puppy with plenty to learn, but I'm already showing some wonderful manners! I walk beautifully on leash and am very food motivated, which makes treats a great tool for continuing my training.

I'm currently learning that toys are for putting my mouth on and people are not. Luckily, I'm easy to redirect when my puppy enthusiasm gets the better of me.

MY HOUSEBREAKING AND/OR CRATING:

I'm crate trained! My full housebreaking history is still unknown.

THINGS I LIKE:

Treats FOOD! Love and affection Exploring new places Sniffing everything first Toys Walks Taking a moment to check out my surroundings Adding new stamps to my passport

THINGS I'M WORKING ON:

Puppy mouthiness Continuing my basic training Learning all the skills that come with growing up

Nutter Butter started life wandering a dirt road in Mexico. Now she's crossed borders, earned herself a passport, and made it all the way to FOHA. For such a young dog, she's already had quite the journey.

The only trip we're really excited about now is the one from FOHA to her forever home.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
