Meet Scooby!
Scooby made it safely to Wisconsin and is loving life in his foster home! This gentle senior may have reached his golden years, but don’t let that fool you — he’s still got plenty of spunk and joy left to share. Scooby enjoys short walks, soft beds, tasty treats, and spending time with his people. He’s a happy, easygoing guy who’s just thrilled to be part of a loving home again.
At around 11 years old and weighing about 78 lbs, Scooby is best guessed to be a Boxer mix. He’s well-mannered, affectionate, and great with other dogs. He’s respectful, calm, and has settled beautifully into home life. He’s believed to be potty trained, keeps his space clean, and has shown no signs of being destructive.
Scooby’s gentle nature and soulful eyes win everyone over instantly. While he’s content to nap the day away, he still has bursts of energy and playful moments that remind you just how much life and love he has left to give. He hasn’t been tested with cats yet, but with slow introductions, he’d likely do fine.
