Butchie always has the best time with his friends at @UBSArena! 💙🧡🦮

Butchie is part of our Puppy With a Purpose® program, which is a unique and interactive partnership that gives sports teams and other organizations the opportunity to co-raise a future guide or service dog for an individual who is blind, has low vision or other disabilities. This program helps increase independence for those in need.

Events like this one provide the perfect environment for pups to socialize and learn to stay focused in distracting settings as they grow and train.

VD: 
Video features clips of Butchie throughout the night at a NY Islanders event. The first clip is Butchie looking down at the camera on the floor the text reads “hi friends!” Next are clips of Butchie meeting with young Isles fans. The text reads “Butchie had a great time at a recent NY Islanders event for season ticket holders! He got to meet lots of friends.” Then a clip of Butchie walking up stairs at the arena. The text reads “and work on his skills.” The next clip shows Butchie working on how to ignore food that has fallen on the floor. The camera zooms into a tiny chocolate chip on the ground and then zooms back out to Butchie and his puppy raiser. His puppy raiser has him go into a “down” and gives him praise when he successfully ignores the food. The last clip is of Butchie walking out of the arena and reads “safe to say he had the best night ever!”
