Welcome to our cozy corner of Texas, where we hand-raise our Coton de Tulear puppies in our home with tons of attention, affection and a sprinkle of puppy magic! We are a small, family-owned breeder of the BELOVED Coton de Tulear with a sincere passion for this amazing breed! All of our babies are registered & pedigreed Coton de Tulear pups & these adorable little bundles of joy are always raised with love in our home just outside Dallas...these babies get more attention than a celebrity on the red carpet - they are the "Royal Dog of Madagascar", after all! At Buttercup Cotons, we believe in lots of tail-wagging socialization and attention, making sure our pups are as happy as a dog with two tails!

CONRAD

I'VE BEEN LIVING MY BEST LIFE WITH AMANDA SINCE APRIL 2023!

ALL ABOUT CONRAD

Current Age: 2.5 years old

Parents: Winston & Daisy

Nicknames: Connie, Con, Con-man

Coat Color: White with hint of apricot on ears and back

Favorite Toy: Lambchop! He brings lambchop to bed every night :)

Favorite treat: Freeze-dried liver treats are his favorite. He also likes green beans on occasion.

Favorite game or activity: I don't know if this is his favorite game but, it's definitely something he wins at every time and that is, the "Staring Game"! He could stare at me for hours without blinking! And I always say, "you win, Conrad!" An activity that Conrad enjoys, as well, is finding the biggest stick in the back yard to bring into the house! He also likes to take his walks with his stick! (He looks like a real man walking down the sidewalk with a toothpick in his mouth... a real ladies man! LOL!)

Silly habit or funny quirk: A funny quirk he has is watching TV! Anytime he sees a dog or any other animal on the television, he will stand up on his back legs and watch the scene, then he'll come back to the couch and sit down until another animal pops up!

Any happy dance or signature move when he's excited? Conrad loves his Zoomies but, I would say his signature move is turning in circles at least 15 times before going #2 outside! 

Best cuddle spot or nap location? His best cuddle spot is on the hardwood floors, he doesn't like dog beds! The only bed he likes is his king size bed at night with his Momma! He likes to sleep on his back and when he falls into his deep sleep, he'll quiet bark, and move his legs like he's running! I think he's chasing rabbits in his dreams! 

Favorite time of day? His favorite time of the day is in the morning when he runs outside to stretch his legs, and he enjoys his nightly walks after dinner!

One word that describes Conrad's personality? So many come to mind, but I'd have to say "Loyal"

What makes your puppy happiest? He's a happy boy all the time!

Favorite place to go on adventures? He likes to socialize with other dogs at the dog park and he loves when his grandparents come to visit!

How does he greet you when you come home? He sits on the back of the couch when I come through the door with his tail-wagging waiting on me to come greet him! LOL :)

If Conrad could talk, what would he say first? Conrad would probably say, "Are you going to eat that?"

Sweet story about Conrad:

The sweetest moment I had with Conrad is when I first brought him home! Sadly, I had to put my sweet Bichon girl down a few months prior. The day after that sad day, I got word that there would be a little boy available and I instantly knew that my little girl sent me Conrad! I kept only one of her favorite toys and bought Conrad a handful of new toys but, it was that first night that he picked through ALL of his new toys and chose that one special toy of hers to cuddle with that first night! It was in that moment I knew she was running free and she had picked Conrad especially for me! Conrad has the sweetest soul and is an absolute blessing!

PUP: SCOUT

"PLAYFUL & very loving. She is the most friendly dog and always wants to be around people. Scout lives with 4 boys so she's the perfect fit. We were also able to teach her several tricks rather quickly. She was easily crate trained but house training her took us a while. She's great with other dogs too! " ~Brittany T.

NEED TRAINING HELP?

WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE TRAINING PROGRAMS OFFERED BY
PUPPY CULTURE!!

PAW PRINT 2_edited_edited.png

We were introduced to the "Puppy Culture" training program on the recommendation of a dear friend and we've been so impressed with the insight and knowledge shared in the "Puppy Culture" program. The DVD content is very in-depth and explains the psychology behind what we may view as problematic dog behaviors to help you address the root causes. Their videos explain things in down to earth ways, but they are not shallow; instead, they offer expert advice and instruction grounded in a lifetime of experience as successful, compassionate dog breeders. Puppy Culture goes through training a new puppy utilizing many different training avenues, such as clicker training, proper socializing, early neurological stimulation, as well as, deconstructing the bad habits that can develop so quickly. They also touch on understanding some puppy issues that are just phases that need to be somewhat tolerated and re-directed. Its been so helpful for the people in our small circle! We hope it blesses your family, including your four-legged members :) After reviewing and utilizing the "Puppy Culture" program for almost a year we whole-heartedly decided to partner with "Puppy Culture" and introduce their wonderful program to my website visitors and my puppy families. We are very confident that you will find all of their material from their books to DVD's and even their podcast to be uniquely insightful in training and understanding your dog. However, if, for any reason, your experience is anything but exceptional please reach out to me and let me know of any issues or concerns you may have.  This is an affiliate link so if you decide to click through from our site and make a purchase, we will receive a small portion. We are very humbled by your trust & support.

“Dogs are our true friends, our angels, our teachers, our healers. They love us unconditionally, as God intended. If we look carefully, we can learn from them how to make the world a brighter and better place.”
