About Shaggy

Meet Shaggy! This adorable, miniature, wire-haired companion is a delightful mix, possibly a Cairn Terrier and West Highland White Terrier. Shaggy came to us through a compassionate surrender after his previous owner faced homelessness. With the colder weather approaching, his owner wanted to ensure he found warmth and security. True to his name, Shaggy possesses a scruffy charm that’s hard to resist. He’s an easygoing little guy who happily soaks up whatever life throws at him. Shaggy is great with other dogs, has a friendly relationship with cats, and adores kids—essentially, he’s a happy little gentleman who makes friends everywhere he goes. At 41 pounds, Shaggy is fixed, vaccinated, and negative for heartworm and tick-borne diseases, making him a healthy addition to any family. This cuddly fellow is also house trained.
