My story

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

Scooby Dooby Doo, where are you? Probably causing a ruckus. Scooby is a fun loving, happy, goofy, dog who never lacks adventure. He’d make an excellent companion with someone who is outdoorsy. He may be 10, but he's still full of spunk and needs a home who can commit to providing him with plenty of mental and physical stimulation. He’d love to go hiking and spend his time exploring the great outdoors. Scooby does well with kids. We'd prefer to place him in a home without other dogs as he can sometimes be an instigator and doesn't always "read the room" well enough to know when other dogs aren't having his antics. All in all, he's a fantastic happy dog who's ready to explore.

Things To Consider Before You Adopt A Retiring Sled Dog:

- Our adoptable sleds dog are used to living in an outdoor, working environment. This means that they will need to be house trained and exposed to "house stimulus" like stairs, cars, vacuums, wood floors etc. Adopting an adult sled dog is similar to welcoming a puppy.?

-Our adoptable sled dogs range from medium to high energy. In general they require multiple walks daily and engaging toys when inside the home. A bored/under exercised ?sled dog is a destructive and anxious sled dog! ?

- Our adoptable sled dogs are trained to run and are therefore a high flight risk. We do require that they be on leash or within a fenced in yard at all times until proper recall training has been received.

- Our adoptable sled dogs have befriended many kitties in their new homes, that being said adopters are instructed to monitor all interactions with small animals as our four-leggers have limited exposure to them while with us and there is no telling how they may react.
