Scruffy is Magical Fella Who Will Steal Your Heart.    Scruffy landed as animal control as a stray and it is beyond us how no one came to look for him,  He is a young fella about 3 with a ton of young dog energy and a desire to please,  He has great house manners but we always tell people to expect a learning curve of  adjustment due to new hours, diets etc, 

He has basic obedience skills,  He needs a yard and to have plenty of play time with another nice dog of his age or respectful older kids,  Scruffy is vocal and barks when he wants to tell you things  He is not quiet or a wallflower about talking,  That won't change so if barking bothers you don't apply for him,  Scruffy is happy to curl up and watch TV with you after a full day of play and fun,  He also loves belly rubs and will shamelessly drop down  and roll over in front of your feet exposing his belly looking for rubs!

Scruffy has been fully vetted.  He has been neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped and had a dental.  

Scruffy  is on the hunt for his own completely committed family,  Pups can live to be 20 years old so he wants to be sure all applicants will stick with him for better or for worse!  If you can promise him your unconditional love and devotion for his entire life, no excuses or back outs then read on about how to apply to be considered as a potential adopter of Scruffy,
