Home Requirements
An experienced owner
A home with garden

Scruffy is looking for an owner who have owned nervous dogs before and can continue working on his socialisation skills. He would prefer access to a garden so he can work on his housetraining and will need to be kept company all day. Scruffy needs to be the only pet in an adult only home.
Scruffy is a sweet, affectionate boy once he knows you but is very nervous of new people to begin with. He would greatly benefit by going along to training sessions to help him with his social skills around other people and dogs. Having a tasty biscuit on offer does help win him over but he needs his new owner to be very patient and understanding with him until he warms up. He lacks in confidence and particularly finds busy areas overwhelming so he needs to be walked in quieter areas first so he can work on his confidence building.
Scruffy will need some work to help him become a more sociable boy but is sure to make a wonderful companion for a committed owner.
