Scooby

Description

Scooby is a 4-year old shadow who believes there is no reason you should ever be in a room without him. If you get up, he gets up. If you're working, he's nearby. If you're on the couch, he'll happily join you for a nap. Scooby is affectionate, funny, easy to have around the house, and happiest when he's simply with his people. He's low to medium energy and is on a weight loss journey after spending much of his life living a pretty sedentary lifestyle. He's discovering that exercise is actually fun, walks beautifully on a leash, and is getting healthier every day. His favorite hobbies are watching for squirrels, snuggling on the couch, taking long naps, and snoring loudly enough to make everyone laugh. Scooby is also wonderfully goofy. His attempts to play with a tennis ball are equal parts determined and awkward, and it's impossible not to smile watching him try. Around the house, Scooby is about as easy as they come. He's potty trained, has excellent house manners, doesn't chew things he shouldn't, and is quiet unless someone knocks on the door. He does well with kids and settles into a routine almost immediately. Scooby gets along well with other dogs. He was good in a daycare environment, has done great with the golden retriever in his foster home, and could happily live with another easygoing dog or be perfectly content as your one and only. Before coming into rescue, Scooby was attacked by another dog in his home and came to us so he could recover safely. He's fully healed, but because of that experience, he appreciates dogs that are respectful of his space until he gets comfortable with them. He'll thrive with someone who understands his past and helps him feel safe if things become chaotic or overwhelming. More than anything, Scooby is just an incredibly good dog. He's funny, affectionate, easy to live with, and happiest when he's near the people he loves. We think whoever adopts him is getting an exceptional dog.
