ADOPTED! Scout

ADOPTED!    Meet Scout!  Scout is the most adorable little ratty you will ever come across! Scout is a short-legged rat terrier, usually referred to as a “Teddy,” and weighs about 11 pounds.  Our vets think he is about a year old, maybe a tad older.  He loves to play with toys!  He is a sable and white, his coloring is beautiful!  He has the cutest bob tail and his ears stand straight up.  Scout is house trained and knows how to use the doggie door. He is crate trained but his foster mom likes to let him to sleep next to her (when he falls to sleep he is out like a rock until morning) and he is such a snuggle bug.  Scout loves to play with his foster brother and sisters, but he also loves to fall to sleep on a lap if one is available.  We are working on food habits he thinks at feeding time all the bowls are for him, but he is learning that is not the case. He is very loving and has not shown any aggression towards anyone.  He was a big hit on Easter and everyone in the house held and played with him.  His foster mom has not seen any aggression towards any other dogs, and there are plenty of them around so that is not a concern.  Scout is especially drawn to children, and doesn’t mind cats at all.  He rides well in the car and is no problem walking on a leash, does hesitate a little, but he is just adjusting to his surroundings.  Scout does like to chew so he does have to be provided raw hides or safe chew bones, antlers work well and last a long time.  For more photos of this cutie, check his album often:
