Cowpokes’ Corral Cast of Characters: Butters

We have some new friends at our Kids Cowpokes’ Corral. We’ll introduce them to you one at a time.

Hi, I’m Butters! I was born on a farm in Choteau, Montana. My friends Mike, Mackenzie, and Tara picked me up on a cold day in June. I was only four weeks old and a little scared that first day and rightfully so. When I arrived at the ranch I learned I was sharing my new corral with some crazy animals!

I enjoy a bottle every morning and love to lay in the sunshine all day. It’s a tough life, but “hay”, somebody’s gotta do it! I also really love following kids around and oh my, when they let me suck on their fingers it’s the greatest! I have a sweet spot behind both of my ears on my neck, and I will be your best friend if you scratch it. I have tons of fun chasing the other animals around our corral, but don’t worry, we’re just playing!

Couldn’t have said it better…

A big thank you to Deborah Stone her eloquent description of the glamping experience at The Resort at Paws Up:

“In my fantasy, I’m lying upon a feather bed draped in 300-thread-count Egyptian silk sheets, while being lulled gently to sleep by the soothing sounds of a nearby river. I’m cozy and dry, yet the great outdoors is right outside my door.

And when I’m hungry, I head for a nearby dining pavilion to enjoy a delicious gourmet meal. A khaki-clad camping butler is at my beck and call and tends to all the details, from providing wine service to arranging a day of exciting adventures. And every evening ends with a ready-made bonfire and a nightly S’mores fest.

It’s a fantasy that can become reality when you visit The Resort at Paws Up, a luxury ranch set along the Blackfoot River in Montana’s pristine wilderness. This grand enclave is a mecca for adrenaline junkies who love the outdoors, but appreciate a high level of comfort and personal service.”
