Meet Scottie! This sweet and playful 1-year-old Australian Shepherd mix has a heart full of love and is ready to find her forever family. While she can be a little shy at first, once Scottie feels comfortable, her affectionate personality truly shines. She loves cuddling with her favorite people and has the cutest habit of "smiling" when she's excited – a goofy grin that's sure to make you smile too! Scottie has a moderate energy level and weighs about 40lb. She enjoys spending time with her people, playing with other dogs, and going for walks in the park. She's still building confidence in new environments and can feel overwhelmed in busy areas, but with help from her foster family, she's making progress every day. She gets along wonderfully with dogs of all sizes. Scottie has no food aggression with people or other dogs, but she loves mealtime so much that she'll happily sample another dog's bowl if given the chance, so feeding separately is recommended.
Ideal Home
Scottie would do best in a home with older or dog-savvy children since she can be a little shy when meeting new people. Her ideal family will be loving, patient, and committed to continuing her confidence-building journey. Another friendly dog would be a wonderful bonus, but it's not required. She can feel overwhelmed in busy areas, so a quieter environment would be ideal.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned for Scottie.
Training & Support
