Scooby likely spent his early life in this environment, and because of that, his future family will need to understand that he may need some extra patience and guidance—especially when it comes to his eating habits.The good news is that Scooby is now reported to be potty trained! 🎉This boy still treats every meal like it might be his last, enthusiastically scarfing down every piece of kibble he receives. While we have not seen food aggression, his past could make food-related behaviors something to be mindful of. Feeding him separately, such as in a crate, and/or using a slow feeder is encouraged.Scooby has also been adopted and returned twice since October 2025, both times due to housing issues—not because he wasn't loved or because he was a bad dog. He deserves a home that can finally be his forever home. 🏡Scooby definitely has some energy to burn! He needs a chance to get his zoomies out every day, but once he's had his fun, he settles down and becomes a good boy with manners. He already knows sit, back up, lay down, and paw! 🐾He is also an incredibly cuddly guy who would happily get as close to you as physically possible. Personal space? Scooby doesn't believe in it. If he could crawl directly into your skin to be closer, he probably would. 😂❤️When it comes to other dogs, Scooby can sometimes be a little rude or dominant, so he may do best with a dog that can match his energy while having a more submissive personality. He is also reported to be fine around cats! 🐱🐶Scooby hasn't had the easiest start in life, and he has already lost two homes through circumstances outside of his control. What he needs now is someone willing to give him structure, daily exercise, full meals, plenty of cuddles, and most importantly...A home that will finally be forever. 🐶❤️🐾 ADOPTION INFORMATION 🐾Thinking about adding a new furry family member?

Piglet is a 4-year-old, 55-pound black Lab mix with a heart as big as his lovable personality. Equal parts sweetheart and loyal shadow, this handsome boy adores people and is happiest wherever his person is—whether that means relaxing on the couch, helping around the house, or heading out on an adventure. He is house-trained, sleeps through the night in his kennel without accidents, and is continuing to build confidence with kennel time when left alone. Piglet is currently spending two weeks in bootcamp with a professional trainer, where he is working hard on basic obedience and strengthening his manners. When he returns at the end of August, he is expected to come back with solid skills, improved confidence, and an even stronger foundation for success in his future home. Piglet is looking for a family who will appreciate his affectionate nature, continue supporting his training, and give him the love and companionship he so clearly enjoys. 😊. Piglet's short coat is easy to maintain with regular brushing, so no professional grooming is required. Piglet gets along well with other dogs, does great with cats, and is good with children too. One of his favorite things in the world is toys — especially a good game of tug! He loves to play, and his goofy, fun-loving personality shines when he is carrying around one of his favorite toys. If you’re looking for a loving, people-oriented dog who just wants to be part of the family, Piglet may be your perfect match. Piglet is up to date on vaccines, prevention, and neutered.
