About Scully

Scully is settled in Alexandria, VA, and brings all the energy of a big, silly puppy wrapped in an adult body. At around 1 to 2 years old, this handsome, easygoing Shar-Pei/Black Mouth Cur mix has a knack for making friends with just about anyone—whether that's people, dogs, or even cats. Scully thrives with activity and play, so he’ll do best with a family that has the time and space for games, walks, and daily adventures. A fenced yard is ideal to let him burn off steam and wrestle with his toys. In foster care, Scully’s been a gentle big brother to pups and smaller dogs. He does especially well when other playful, smaller dogs are around, and bigger dogs tend to make him uneasy. He’s crate trained and housetrained, sleeping soundly through the night and resting quietly during the day. Scully is working on a few habits—like jumping up and mouthing when he’s excited—but with patient, consistent training, he’s sure to settle into a solid routine. Because he forgets his size when joyful, he’ll fit best with families who have older kids. If you want a loyal pal for the park, a relaxing evening at a café, or just a lovable companion with a heart of gold, Scully’s ready to join the adventure. Ready to fall in love?
