Lord Scruffington III's Story

We advise all adopters to expect the 3-3-3 rule as a general guideline for introducing a pet to the home: 3 days to decompress (will show nervousness, hiding, reduced appetite), 3 weeks to settle into a routine (beginning to explore and showing personality), and 3 months to build trust and feel fully comfortable in their new home. This period may be longer for shy or extremely scared animals.<br/><br/>This scrappy little terrier mix may be small, but his personality is anything but! He's got energy for days and is looking for an active home that can keep up with his zest for life: think hikes, playtime, and maybe a little mischief along the way.<br/><br/>Now, let's talk about his... quirks (because he has to have them to keep up his larger-than-life personality):<br/>-Personal space? Especially around the head and face? Non-negotiable. <br/>-Being medicated or restrained? Hard pass, thank you very much. <br/>-Sharing attention? He'd prefer to be your one and only VIP.<br/><br/>Because of this, he's looking for an adult-only home where his boundaries are respected and he can truly relax and be his best self. He's loyal, lively, and full of spunky charm, the kind of dog who will keep you laughing and on your toes in all the best ways. If you're an active adult looking for a sidekick with personality (and a few diva tendencies), he just might be your guy.
