My story

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

Meet Scottie 2 Rottie!

Scottie's story starts out a sad one but he is well on his way to the good life now. This young man got himself locked up at animal control. The high stress environment did not bode well for Scottie as he's already an anxious guy and had developed some habits that the sheltered deemed unmanageable in that environment.

Luckily, he foster parents stepped up to bust him out of the pound and give him a shot at working through some of his "unmanageable" behaviors. He has been working with his fosters and a trainer and has been moving in the right direction.

His "bad habits" included jumping and being mouth have been virtually nonexistent since being in the fosters home who understand a young rottie's behavior when they weren't given a strong foundation as a small puppy and have grown in a large brute of a guy who will test his boundaries. In true rottie fashion, of course.

Anyone who understands this breed in general, knows that training is going to need to continue on or else he will continue to test those boundaries. The trainer says he LOVES to learn and is so smart.

He has been started on Fluoxetine and it has done wonders for the generalized anxiety he experiences.

He would do best in a home with another medium to large dog/dogs as he loves to play but given his size and age loves to play rough so may be too much for the smaller dogs.

Overall, Scottie is very sweet, loves attention and will gladly take pets and scratches from anyone willing to give them.
