FOND DU LAC - The mystery behind the little stray dog that evaded capture in the city for five months has been solved.
Butters, the fluffy, red-haired dog who won over hearts in a south-side neighborhood, is actually a Texan, her rescuers discovered.
And somehow the pup, who was originally adopted in Oshkosh last year, made her way to Fond du Lac where she caused a flurry of concern that brought together neighbors, rescue groups and even a professional trapper.
After surviving a Wisconsin winter on her own by outsmarting all human efforts, Butters was captured on April 20 in the backyard of Karen and Ed Sheppard. The couple had been feeding the dog since last November in an effort to coax her off the streets.

Schools, districts, and states appear to be facing two overarching questions as they continue to allocate and spend tens of billions of dollars in federal stimulus funds: does the federal investment allow states to significantly expand education programs and, simultaneously, will the influx of cash prevent districts and schools from slashing budgets after enrollment declines and shifts in spending priorities?
After months of waiting, all public and private schools in San Diego County received the green light to reopen for instruction starting Wednesday, now that the county’s COVID case rate has finally stayed low enough to reach the state’s less-restrictive red tier.
The momentous yet expected tier announcement by county officials Tuesday, along with a decision by a county judge on Monday, cleared the way for an expanded reopening at some North County districts that have for weeks been asking the state to reopen their middle and high schools.
At least three of those districts Poway Unified, Carlsbad Unified and San Dieguito Union High this week started offering at least one day a week of in-person instruction to their middle and high school students.
