About Scrappy

Scrappy is a spirited Basset Hound who is full of life and charm. At around 4 years old, he’s looking for a forever home alongside his best friend, Millie. This dynamic duo thrives in an active environment and they would thrive in a home where they can play and be loved. Their current owners can’t keep them any longer, so they need a family who can appreciate their bond and bring them both into their lives. As an active dog, Scrappy needs a fenced yard to enjoy some outdoor playtime. He is already house trained, making him a great companion for a new family. Scrappy is neutered and up to date on his vaccinations. While there is a suggested donation to help with their adoption process, you can be assured that BHRL is covering Scrappy's "cherry eye surgery" prior to adoption. Are you ready to welcome this lovable pair into your home?
