About Scooby

Scooby is a charming two-year-old fawn Great Dane with a playful and affectionate disposition. He has a gentle nature but is initially timid around new people, often shying away from touch until he feels comfortable. It took him some time to trust, as he needed to observe quietly before venturing out of his crate with confidence. Now, he joyfully bounds through his home, eager to be near his human companions. Given his large size, Scooby is best suited for homes with older children who can respect his space and nature. He's friendly with other dogs, though his behavior with cats remains unknown. Recently neutered and up to date on vaccinations, Scooby is a healthy and happy boy with bright eyes and a calm demeanor. He loves to stay close to people, showcasing his loyal personality. This guy won't last long, so if you're interested, make sure to get your application in soon! Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
