Story
Scoob is a 7-month-old Aussie mix who is full of youthful energy and enthusiasm for life. He’s house trained and enjoys having the freedom to choose his favorite sleeping spot around the house rather than being crated. Scoob is a playful, active boy who loves running in the yard, going for walks, chewing on a good bone, and entertaining himself with toys. He would thrive in a home that enjoys an active lifestyle and can help him burn off his energy in healthy, positive ways. Scoob does well with other large dogs and would love a canine friend who can keep up with his playful spirit. Because he has a strong prey drive, a home without cats or small animals is recommended. His energy and size also mean he’s best suited for a home with older children, as he can accidentally knock over little ones when he’s excited. A securely fenced yard is ideal for Scoob since he loves outdoor play and prefers not to potty on a leash or tie-out. Scoob is still very much a puppy and will benefit from continued training, structure, and patience as he grows into the great dog he’s meant to be. With the right environment, plenty of exercise, and guidance, Scoob will make a fun, loyal companion for an active home ready to embrace his happy, energetic personality. His minimum adoption fee is $300 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.

Story
Check out our videos after the pictures. :) Please consider opening your heart and home to one of these babies. They were living outside in the cold and have never had toys or a nice warm bed to sleep in. Rescued from Missouri. They are sweet babies that just want to be loved. I promised them they would have the BEST life and be safe and warm and be very loved. Hi! I'm Dominica, a puppy with a heart full of love and a nose for adventure! I'm super friendly and sweet, always ready for a cuddle or a playful romp. Curiosity is my middle name; I adore exploring and learning new things. I dream of finding a forever home where I can share all my love and curiosity. If you're looking for a cuddly companion to explore the world with, I'm the perfect pup for you!
