My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Scooter is a very sweet boy, good with children and cats. He does not react to deer, golf carts, walkers, bikers, or small dogs when out walking, but does show reactivity with large dogs by barking and pulling.

In the home, he is so lovely, calm, and friendly. He is a very laid back and relaxed dog. He is extremely responsive with treats on walks and his reactivity is easily managed with the use of food rewards. He still needs a bit of distance from larger dogs (20-30 feet) to be able to stay calm, but has done really well when this strategy is used. He has worked with a trainer and would benefit continuation to build social confidence.

Scooter becomes very attached to his family. He loves with his whole heart!

He has done fine with little dogs.

Scooter would love a foster family, foster to adopt or a forever home. If interested, you can complete our application at safeanimalhaven.org
