My story

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

Scotty Mojo came to us on Giving Tuesday 2023 from the City of Bakersfield Animal Care Center. He is the leader of the PowerPuff girls (Bubbles, Buttercup & Bl-Awesome). He was a shelter staff favorite and we rescued him the same day he was scheduled for euthanasia.

Here is a note from Scotty Mojo:

Hmmm, hello. I'm Scotty Mojo and I'd appreciate it if you stayed more over that way.. farther from me... farther. Thank you. I would much prefer to come to you when I feel good and ready. I gotta make sure that I trust you first, so no touchy yet! Once I do decide I like you, then I'll be your best bud and will wanna hop up on you and give kisses! I even like being around the humans more than my dog friends here. I will tolerate the other dogs, but I can do without them as well. I'll maybe play for a bit, but would much rather wander around the yard and explore or hang with the human. I do enjoy playing with the ball a bit and chewing on a chew bone. I'm working on getting used to the leash and how to sit! The humans still take new things slow with me, so I don't get too scared. I was so scared when they tried to put a baby wipe in my ear to clean it, but when they got it in there I realized it actually felt pretty good! I just never had that happen before, so I was scared. They're trying to show me that not everything is something to be afraid of! I'm looking for a forever family that will be patient with me and give me the time and understanding that I may need in all these new changes and adventures.
