Meet Scout — A Gentle Soul Learning to Shine Scout is a 6-month-old hound mix who made his way to us from Louisiana alongside his siblings. Like many pups who didn’t have the easiest start, Scout is still growing into his confidence — but he’s making progress every day. Scout is currently recovering from mange, and his hair is already starting to grow back beautifully. Underneath it all, he’s a handsome boy who just needs a little time to fully glow. He’s on the shy side and will need a patient, understanding family committed to helping him build confidence. Scout is learning about the world around him, including socialization and walking on a leash, and will do best with a family willing to go at his pace and celebrate the small wins. Scout would thrive in a home with another outgoing, confident dog to help show him the ropes and build his confidence. With time, love, and consistency, Scout has all the potential to blossom into a loyal, loving companion. If you have a calm home and a big heart for a pup who needs a little extra guidance, Scout could be the perfect addition to your family.
