About Scotty

Meet Scotty, a wonderful dog who embodies resilience and affection. He was discovered on Scott Avenue in Morgantown, WV, and has come a long way since. At about 5–6 years old, Scotty is neutered and up to date on all vaccinations. He’s all about experiences over treats; long walks, car rides, and exploring the outdoors are his favorites. A fenced yard would be perfect, but what Scotty truly desires is a family to share his life with. Around 80 pounds, Scotty enjoys close companionship. If you're sitting down, he’ll likely join you. He thrives on attention and would benefit from an owner with a flexible schedule who can be around more often. Scotty does experience some separation anxiety, which is improving thanks to anxiety supplements and a consistent routine. He’s currently in a foster home with another dog, where he’s doing well, but he would also love to be the only dog soaking up all the love. While Scotty gets along with dogs and children, he does not get along with cats. He’s looking for someone who can appreciate his loyalty and companionship. After everything he's been through, Scotty is ready to find the perfect forever home. Could that be with you? He is currently being fostered in Fairmont, WV. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
