About Noel

Noel is a delightful 6-year-old black female Scottish Terrier recently rescued from a breeding facility. Although she's still adjusting to her new life, she has a sweet nature and is quickly learning. Currently, she observes her surroundings from the comfort of an open crate but is starting to come out for pets and affection from her foster parents. Having been through a tough past, including an attack that left her with some mild scarring on her cheek, Noel may be best suited as an only dog. She does not get along with cats or other dogs, so a peaceful home would really suit her. As she adapts to being in a home environment, she's making progress with house training and will need some support in learning to walk on a leash, which is why a fenced yard would be ideal. Noel is being fostered in Pottsville, PA, and is excited for her new journey. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
