BUTTERS IS IN NEW JERSEY
Butters, the pitbull was transported from Toledo, Ohio to Sicklerville, NJ on November 6.
Pitbulls are not welcome in Toledo, Ohio where the dog warden makes it very difficult for these animals to exist.
A local rescue group in Ohio contacted NJ Aid for Animals about helping to rehome Butters who is a lovely and friendly pit. Butters had been owned by someone who died and left poor Butters all alone. Butters was sitting by his dead owner when they found him. He had a severe case of mange and is finally healing up.
Through our contacts we were able to locate a local rescue who agreed to take Butters ….but how to get him here on a ten hour trip?
Our Advisory Board member, Karen Ash who lives in Toledo was driving to NJ for our Annual Board Meeting so the fit was perfect. Why not kill two birds with one stone….drive Butters to his new home and attend the board meeting at the same time?
What a sight for sore eyes when they arrived….over 500 miles just the two of them in the car together Karen driving and Butters sitting on the seat behind her slobbering all over her shoulder and looking out the window, both arrived happy. Butters is safe and secure….
