Looking for a dog who’s equal parts running buddy, cuddle companion, and gentle soul? Meet Scout, a handsome and affectionate mix who’s ready to find his forever family.

Scout is an athletic guy who lives for a good run—he used to log 4 miles a day, five days a week, and it was truly the highlight of his day. If you enjoy staying active and having a four-legged fitness partner by your side, Scout’s your guy!

When he’s not zipping around the yard doing zoomies, this sweet boy turns into the biggest cuddle bug. Sit on the floor, and he’ll be in your lap before you even get comfortable. He thrives on closeness and just wants to be where his people are, giving and receiving love.

Scout’s heart is as big as his energy. With animals he knows, he is remarkably patient and kind. He tolerates being pestered by a sassy cat, happily wrestles with a 140-lb dog buddy, and gently entertains his more excitable canine cousins—even when he’s tired. He’s also a natural peacemaker, calmly stepping in to defuse doggy tensions.

That said, Scout is selective with unfamiliar dogs and can be reactive in new situations. He’s had consistent training in the past and did well, but ongoing work will be important for his continued growth and safety. With structure, space to run, and a committed family, Scout will thrive.

He's a goofy, loving, endlessly special boy who just needs the right home—one that understands his needs and is willing to invest in him the way he deserves. If you're ready for a loyal companion who will shower you with love, snuggles, and the occasional high-speed zoomie, Scout is ready to meet you!
