Scooby Australian Kelpie Newport, NC

Meet this handsome fella named Scooby! Some call him Scooby Sooob. He came in April 20, 2023 when his owner could no longer keep him. He is 2 years old, current on shots, and adjusting to shelter life. He came in scared and weiry of new place and people. Can’t blame him with nothing familiar to him. He’s learning the ropes and that it’s fun to go out and play. May take a few visits for him to warm up to you at the shelter but once he does you will have a loyal companion in Scooby!! Update February 2024:: Scooby went on an outing with a sweet volunteer and did fantastic. Rides the best in the car…sits calmly and loves to stick his head out of the sunroof when sitting still. He met lots of new people and was tail wagging. Also met a few dogs in passing and seemed happy too. He loves walks and really enjoyed his pup cup. He sees me once a week and loves to share kisses with me and enjoys a good game of chase. Imagine what he will be like once in a home and with you on a daily basis. Just a unique, charming, happy pup who deserves an equally happily ever after! With a little time, love, and patience he will thrive and make a loyal companion. Adopt Scooby today!
If you have another dog and are interested in meeting another potential new furry member please bring him or her to the shelter and meet on neutral ground before adopting. No need to shuffle the animals around any more than necessary. Please know that 1 mosquito bite can create heart worms and they can be fatal if not treated. It is VERY important to keep your pets healthy and protected by keeping them on a once a month heart worm and flea/tick prevention. These animals are counting on you as their owner to provide them with lots a love and the proper health care so PLEASE make sure you are aware and prepared before adopting. Owning a pet is an extra expense and responsibility but is so worth every minute and penny you invest in them. They will add lots of joy and unconditional love if given a fair chance.
The shelter is open Mon.-Fri. 10-1, 2-5, Sat. 10-4. Adopt a homeless pet and save a life. If you can not adopt right now come out and volunteer and make a difference in the lives of these animals while they await their FOREVER home.
In order to adopt any of our "bully breeds" there is special paper work that will need to be collected and approved prior to the adoption. We love all of our dogs and want to make sure to place our "bully babies" in homes best suited for them.
