Scooby
1-year-old Male Mixed Breed

R-ruh… h-hi there. I’m Scooby. Y-yes, that Scooby … but I’m a little quieter than the cartoon guy. I came in as a stray and, r-really, the world was super scary for me at first. New noises, new people, new smells — zoinks, it was a lot. I’m still a bit shy in new places and around new folks, so sometimes I’ll freeze up or quietly scoot away until I feel safe.

Good news though! I’ve been living in a foster home for a few weeks now, and even though it took me some time to warm up, my foster says I’m doing r-really well. Once I know you, I turn into a big softie. I love cuddling, going for gentle walks, and when I’m feeling brave, I like to run around and play too. I just need patience and calm vibes so I can show you my best Scooby self.

If new people come into the house, I might go “ruh-roh” and hide until I know everything’s okay. And if I go home with another dog, they need to be calm, respectful, and willing to let me take things slow.

No rushing this Scoob. I need time to sniff things out and feel safe. I don’t exactly love my crate … r-reah, it’s not my favorite. But I’ll tolerate it when you go to work or have to leave me alone. And once I’m comfortable? That’s when my mischievous side comes out. I might steal a sock or two-r-rooby-snacks, right?

If you’ve got patience, a gentle heart, and room for a shy Scooby who just wants to feel safe and loved … I think we could be r-really great together.
