Scout is a big-hearted lab-mix with an earnest streak and a goofy side that breaks through every time he gets to toss a squeaky toy or chase after a ball. He revels in yard time with volunteers and takes pride in his progress on a dedicated weight loss journey—hydrotherapy sessions and neighborhood walks both fuel his sense of accomplishment. Scout always keeps tidy; he respects his space, never destroys his bedding, and waits until walks to take care of business. He's got one quirk: mealtime can prompt a bit of food guarding, so his future family should be prepared to work on this gently. Scout lives for the outdoors and would thrive with a fenced yard and an active companion who enjoys walks. He prefers to be the only pet in a calm, adult home where he can enjoy quiet evenings by his people. Loyal to the core, Scout offers a rare blend of devotion and comic relief—you’ll get a confidant and an eager walking buddy in one. Born August 1, Scout is a Leo: no surprise, he loves being the center of attention and at the heart of his pack. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
