Black Labrador Retriever, Greyhound [Mix]

Scrappy is a one year old Lab mix. We guess by his long slender legs, his ears, and how lean he is that the other half is greyhound. Scrappy was surrendered because the older dogs in his home couldn't put up with his puppy nature and were beating him up pretty badly. Scrappy is good with most other dogs, but would probably do best in a home with another moderately playful young dog. He's not too impressed with dogs that are super hyper- must have picked this up from the dogs that beat him up! He is housetrained, neutered, and has all his vaccinations. Like any lab mix, Scrappy might like to chew on things you leave out, unless he's got lots of toys and appropriate things to chew. He loves people of all kinds and ages, and would be fine in any human home. He even likes cats!

Scrappy is a love, and wonderful at the dog park, even off leash! He loves to run and run, but will come when c alled. He's an awesome dog- come meet him!

The adoption fee for this dog is $125.00.

If you are considering adopting a dog, please first consider:

Do I have time for the dog and am I committed to keeping it for the many years we hope it lives?

Do I have the patience for a dog? Even adult dogs have a transition period while they learn to behave in their new homes.

Can I afford a dog? The cost is significant if they are given good quality food and the veterinary care that they need.

Will the dog be an integral part of the family and will it fit in with other animals in the family? All family members should want the new dog.

Can I keep the dog if my life situation changes? Moves, marriages, divorces, new babies are a common part of life, and the dog should not have to lose its home because of changes.

Most important, can I give the dog the love, attention, gentle training, exercise, and care that it will need for its lifetime?
