valbitz Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 (edited) Scout is a private surrender that will end up in the pound if no one can help her. SARG are unable to help as they currently have no big dog carers or resources to help with training so was hoping another rescue group could help her. Dogs Name; Scout (photos below) DOB 1/06/2011 Breed; Lab/ maybe stag or terrier?? As she has whiskers Scout is already desexed, microchipped (Pet Safe), C5 vaccination (Due Sept 2012), Prohart injection (due Aug 2012) looking at the vet paperwork she has no health issues (Benetook vets) Reason for surrendering they do not have enough time after a marriage break up and having to go back to work full time. Scout is very boisterous, excitable and jumps up but appeared to settle after ignoring her behaviour and only giving treats and praise when settled on her own she will need a very patient owner that is experienced with training. Scout will mouth you lots and tug on your clothes and anything else like a handbag etc she does know sit and the owner said she started her in puppy preschool but didn’t really continue her training, she also walks her when she can lead on collar no harness or anything and she pulls so may need more training or walking harness/gentle leader to help address this issue. Scout has always been an outside dog never allowed inside so not toilet trained. The lady had wire down to stop digging in spots so she is a digger and she also said she is great with other dogs she has met in the past and never shown any signs of aggression.

BC Crazy Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Poor Scout she would make someone a really good companion I feel. She looks like a lovely girl that just wants the love & attention she deserves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
