Story
Scooter **Dog Selective but has had some yard buddies** *VERY wary of men. Would most likely do best in a quiet, woman home. Scooter is what we call a project dog. We here at the shelter adore him, because we have formed a bond with him so he trusts us. This is NOT a dog you take home day one. We don't know his full background but we know at some point something happened to make him wary of new people, especially men. He is very loving and goofy once he trusts you. We would love to see him get out of the shelter because we feel he would be an amazing dog once in a home. He is active so a fenced in yard would be amazing for him to run in. But he also would curl up beside you while you read a book or watch a movie as well. He has been here 238 days and counting.

Story
Transformation Thursday! Introducing CoCo! He was a surrender to Animal Control in early October, and we had space to pull him. We wanted to start working on that skin condition because we know he had to be miserable. Once month's worth of medicated baths and mousse, oral medications and a Nexgard, and a good sensitive skin food have done wonders for this guy. He still has a ways to go - but he is much healthier and happier now! He is around 4 years old and close to 60 lbs. He is not neutered yet (skin was too irritated) but he will be in accordance with state law, and he will get microchipped and rabies vaccine then as well. He is up to date on his other yearly vaccinations and dewormer. He was 4DX tested and was negative for all the tick and heartworm diseases. We have not tested him with other animals yet - and he does need some obedience work. But he is a happy go lucky guy that would love to join you in your home. Here is the link to apply: https://www.hshcwv.org/adopt.html And if you would like to help support the food he is on - bags can be sent to 2450 Saltwell Rd Shinnston, WV 26431. We will drop the kind he is on in the comments below It is Purina One Sensitive Skin.
