About Scooter

Meet Scooter! Scooter is a 10-year-old terrier mix, looking for a cozy spot to enjoy his golden years. Recently surrendered to a shelter when his owner entered assisted living, this sweet gentleman has so much love to give and is eager to find his forever home. Scooter is the ultimate snuggler, fully house-trained, and ready to cuddle on the couch or sleep at the foot of your bed. He's unbelievably affectionate and greets everyone with a happy, wagging tail. With perfect house manners, he roams freely without causing trouble. While Scooter loves exploring a secure backyard, he’s still getting the hang of walks on a leash. A home without cats or small children will suit him best, given his terrier instincts. He’s a bit nervous in the car but is making progress with positive reinforcement. Scooter is a wonderful companion, proving that senior dogs have so much to offer.
