Meet Buttercup


Buttercup has been with us for awhile and is ready and waiting for her forever home. She had been bleeding for a year prior to her release to rescue, and was needed emergency bladder stone surgery.

Bladder stones are an extremely painful condition. Often, a pet who has been previously housetrained will start having accidents in the house. Your pet may stay "down" in the squatting position longer than usual, as these stones pass like tiny pieces of glass. You may notice many, many tiny spots of urine in the house, or dark colored spots as this urine contains blood. Please, if you have a pet who is bleeding, or is having frequent urination, please take them to the vet immediately. .

Buttercup is learning to relax and enjoy her foster brothers and sisters. She loves to play. However, she does have a tendency to be a little pushy, so she'd probably do best with another laid back dog.
