About Scout

Scout is a young male Border Collie mix who is nearly 3.5 years old and weighs about 42 lbs. He was found as a stray, and his previous owner, encountered at a homeless camp, chose to release him. Thankfully, Scout is now safe and in a loving environment. He’s been a bit thin and defeated but is starting to perk up. Scout gets along well with other dogs, making him a great companion if you have furry friends at home. You can meet Scout during our adoption events held Saturdays and Sundays from 10 AM to 4 PM at our Adoption Center, located right next to CAL Ranch at 232 North Jones Blvd in Las Vegas. No appointments are necessary; just walk in. If you have other dogs or your entire family, feel free to bring them along for a proper introduction. Scout is neutered, fully vaccinated, and microchipped. He also comes with 30 days of free post-adoption support through Petcademy.org, providing access to trainers and helpful resources to settle him into your home. If you're interested in adding Scout to your family, please contact dogrescuelv@hotmail.com to confirm his attendance at the event. Ready to make Scout a part of your family? Apply today!
