Everybody, meet Butters. This sweet pooch is a wise sentient being disguised as a sweet ole pupper. Butters knows the answer to life, but chooses to enjoy it rather than dwell on whatever it is. Everybody should be more like Butters.

 

Recently, Butters has been going viral for a video of him simply enjoying a nice summer breeze. The video was sparked from a TikTok trend where the person taking the video asks the viewers if they can watch the person their about to put on the camera. This has hilariously been done with clueless supervisors, funny family members, and confused beloved seniors. It's also been done with a lot of pets to showcase their cuteness. That might have been the initial intent for Butter's take on the trend, but it transformed into something completely different. Butters transformed the video into a mental health wellness checkpoint.

  • That's right, Butters might be the cure to whatever is mentally ailing you. Is that a scientific proven fact? We don't know, probably somewhere. Is it just obvious when you look at the video? Yes. The woman asks the viewers to watch her dog, Butters, and then puts the camera on him. What is he doing? Being cute, of course, because all dogs are, but also allowing the wind to brush his face ever so gently…

  • "Can y'all watch Butters for a second? I gotta go to the bathroom."

  • Viewers are welling up with tears in gratitude to Butters. They say he is reminding them to appreciate the little things, to stop and smell the roses, to feel the wind on your face. He is a full on guru at this point and we would love to sign up for the Butters religion.
