Intentional Intimidation

Hi! I'm Gretchen.

I'm 22 years old but I've been drawing since I can remember and I'm thrilled to be able to combine two worlds I love- art and the advocation of responsible pet ownership. I'm currently a full time soldier and part time college student, pursuing a STEM degree.

I have a rescue mutt Betsy, and a well bred Border Terrier named Bullet. I also have two cats Monarch and Beetle. When I'm not at work or studying, I enjoy fostering with my local shelter, drawing, gym, reading and photography. Most of the photos on this website are taken by me!

The Goal

Butterbar Bootcamp was founded for responsible pet owners who want to represent the ethical dog world. For all the times you've advocated for ethical breeding, rescue, training, grooming, supporting our veterinarians, or responsible pet ownership in general- now you can wear it too.
