Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Scooby! Scooby is one smart cookie with a whole lot of personality — and let’s be honest, those ears are doing some serious heavy lifting in the personality department. We’re pretty sure at least one of them is permanently tuned in to the sound of a treat bag opening. He is also pretty darn good at entertaining himself. Tossing a toy into the air and catching it? Check. Whipping it around like he just won the Super Bowl? Check. Chasing his own tail because apparently that's a perfectly reasonable way to spend an afternoon? Absolutely. But Scooby doesn't want to have all the fun by himself. He loves playing with his people, especially a good game of tug-of-war or chasing a squeaky ball. He enjoys fetch, too — although he's figured out that if he looks at your hand first, there's a pretty good chance a treat might magically appear. He's a negotiator. And if there's water involved? Even better! Scooby loves being outdoors and has a serious appreciation for playing in the water. He is always ready for an adventure and would happily be your sidekick for walks, exploring, and outdoor fun. Scooby is crate trained and has great leash manners. He knows sit, lay down, no, and come here, and he has even mastered the art of waiting for permission before eating his dinner. He'll wait patiently for that "go"… although there may be a little drool involved. Scooby needs a human who is willing to keep him on his toes — in the best way! He’s smart, eager to please, and very treat motivated, so he’s a fun dog to train. His ideal person will continue working with him, set clear boundaries, and be consistent about following through. He may try to convince you that the rules are merely suggestions (those ears can be very persuasive!), so he needs someone confident enough to say, “Nice try, Scoob,” and stick to the plan. A note about Scooby's adoption Scooby did have a nip incident, and unfortunately, we don't have enough information about what triggered it or exactly why it happened. Because we don't want to make assumptions about the circumstances, we're looking for an adopter who understands that dogs communicate in different ways and is willing to give Scooby the structure, patience, and continued guidance he needs to succeed. We're happy to talk openly with potential adopters about what we know and don't know about the incident so that everyone can make an informed decision about whether Scooby is the right match. Because Scooby has so much to offer, we don't want one unexplained moment to define the rest of his story. He's goofy. He's smart. He's loyal. He's playful. He's an adventurer. And he's a professional treat enthusiast. If you're looking for a fun-loving best friend who will make you laugh, keep you moving, sit on your feet, and happily follow you wherever the adventure leads… Scooby is ready to meet you.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet. ⺠We do not adopt to Canada due to border restrictions and breed-specific legislation ⺠We adopt & foster locally only ; within an approximately 55 mile radius of Lockport, NY 14094 USA Adoption donation includes Spay/Neuter, Vaccinations, deworming & flea treatment.
