About Scotty

✨ Are you in search of a lovable, larger-than-life companion who embodies the essence of sweetness? Meet Scotty, a delightful 4-year-old Lab mix! Weighing in at a hefty 58 pounds, this gentle giant truly knows how to dominate the role of the oversized lap dog. 🥰 Scotty is nothing short of a miracle worker with his furry friends of all sizes. From the strictest of adult pups to the tiniest three-pound puppies, he’s simply phenomenal! Imagine him meeting a 12-week-old pup at the vet and showering the little one with kisses like a proud mama. Trust me, it was as heartwarming as it sounds. This charming boy thrives on people’s affection, making him an extraordinary addition to virtually any family out there. Once a stray, Scotty is still getting the hang of all things home life, but don’t let that fool you—he’s picking it up faster than you can say "good boy!" Although new noises and sudden movements can rattle him a bit, he responds with nothing but grace and gentleness, quietly retreating instead of reacting with aggression. 🌼 When it comes to outdoor adventures, Scotty is all in! He loves frolicking in the fresh air and playing with his toys, particularly those pint-sized ones. Just imagine this gentle giant going to town with toys made for pups a fraction of his size—it’s hilariously adorable! 🐶 However, he’s still mastering the art of ‘counter-surfing’, because let’s face it, when you’re as tall as he is, nothing is out of reach! One mystery remains: how does he feel about cats? Well, he does get rather excited upon sighting one, but whether that’s curiosity or a newfound prey drive is still up in the air. For now, a cat-free home may just be the wisest choice! If you’re on the hunt for a big-hearted, toy-loving, dog-friendly companion who’s eager to be enveloped in the warmth of a loving family, then Scotty is more than ready. 💖 To see if Scotty fits into your family picture perfectly, please apply for adoption through the Buddy App. This is the first step to giving Scotty the heartwarming home he so deserves! Remember, the team will review your application carefully and, if all goes well, facilitate a meet-up with this lovable gent! 🐾 P.S. This compassionate rescue team ensures all dogs are spayed/neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and receiving necessary medical treatments to ensure Scotty is as healthy as can be! Let’s get this loving soul home—with you!
