Cosby's Story

If you're looking for a smart, playful puppy with a heart as big as his ears, Crosby might just be your perfect match.<br/><br/>Crosby is an estimated 14-16 week-old German shepherd mix (guess) who was rescued after being found abandoned along the side of the highway near Meredith Lake in Fritch, Texas during the first week of May. He was only about 6-8 weeks old at the time, but thanks to rescue, he's grown into a healthy, happy puppy who's ready for a forever home.<br/><br/>Crosby is affectionate, playful, and loves spending time with people and other animals. He gets along well with other dogs, has done well with cats and children, and enjoys every chance he gets to run, play, and discover something new. He's doing wonderfully with crate training, house training, leash walking, and has quickly figured out how to use a doggie door.<br/><br/>We believe Crosby will mature into a medium-large sized dog, likely around 50-65 pounds, although that's simply our best estimate based on his age and appearance.<br/><br/>Like many herding breed mixes, Crosby is intelligent, energetic, and loves having something to do. He'll thrive with an active family willing to continue his training and provide plenty of exercise, enrichment, and companionship. Previous experience with herding breeds is preferred.<br/><br/>Crosby is fully vetted and ready to go home. He has received four DHPP vaccines, Bordetella, Rabies, tested negative on a fecal exam, is neutered, microchipped, and has been cleared by his veterinarian for adoption.<br/><br/>Whether you're looking for a walking buddy, an adventure partner, or a loyal companion to grow up with your family, Crosby is ready to fill that role—and your heart.<br/><br/>Apply to adopt:<br/>https://airtable.com/appklteyg5w2e0fmu/shrY8RxQc1KxQYCuv<br/><br/>At this time, we are accepting applications from adopters in NJ, DE, MD, DC, RI, TX, NM, CO, OK, OH, IL, IN, MI, VA, WV, and NC. Adoptions to other areas farther north, as well as western and central Long Island, may be considered on a case-by-case basis.

Scout's Street Smart Rescue's Adoption Policy
Adopters must be 21+ years old and have proper identification. ALL members of the household must agree on the adoption. We do NOT allow adoptions to be surprises for others. Out of state adoptions are ALLOWED. We currently adopt to homes located in PA, NY, MD, DE, NJ, MA, CT, RI, OH, NH, OR, WA, SC, and FL. We will also adopt to homes located within 200-250 miles from Amarillo, TX 79101, and may make exceptions on a case-by-case basis for longer distances or other states. Potential adopters must submit an initial application that will be followed up by a phone interview and home check. Potential adopters must be able to prove that property management permits pets if renting or prove homeownership. We call two personal non-family references (ie. friends, neighbors or co-workers) that are to be listed on the application. If there are any current pets in the home, we will call your Veterinarian as well to ensure all pets are up to date on state required vaccines and are spayed/neutered. Potential adopter must provide basic care for the life of the animal. An adoption contract must be thoroughly read, completed, and signed by the adopter before the adoption is complete. The adoption process could range anywhere from a few hours, up to a week. We do NOT hold dogs/puppies.
