About Scout
Scout is a unique lap dog trapped in the body of a 60-pound Border Collie/Aussie mix. Estimated to be around 4 years old, he may sound like an old man with his groans, but he has the heart of a playful pup. His love for people shines bright, especially towards those he considers his own. It's all about connection for Scout—he's eager for attention and affection, often showing it by offering his paw, belly rubs, or happily nudging against you for more snuggles. Despite his breed, Scout has a medium energy level. He enjoys daily walks and some spirited tug-of-war or wrestling time. He does well with other dogs, particularly females of similar size or smaller, though he appreciates slow introductions. Scout is gentle and patient with children, eagerly engaging in their playful energy. While he hasn't been around cats, he thrives in a nurturing environment and is grateful for the love he receives. This smart dog is house trained and crate trained, quickly mastering commands like sit and lay down, all driven by his love for liver treats. Scout would flourish in a family that understands his journey to becoming the best dog he can be. A yard is a plus for him, but as long as he gets his daily walks and playtime, he’ll be content. If you’re ready to provide him with patience, pets, and play, Scout will be a devoted companion for life. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
