Notes from Rescue Ranch

Meet Scout: The Big, Vocal, and Playful Teddy Bear!

Hello there! My name is Scout, and I’m a large-and-in-charge male dog with a personality as big as my heart. If you’re looking for a best friend to join you on adventures, bring you toys, and have a good chat with you, I’m your guy!

What You Should Know About Me:

People-Friendly: I absolutely love adult people! I’m highly social, very affectionate, and have never met a stranger I didn’t want to be friends with.

Vocal & Playful: I am not a quiet guy—I will let you know I’m excited to see you with adorable vocalizations! I love toys and am a big, playful goofball.

Dog-Savvy: I have done great with, and coexisted well with, two neutral female dogs during playtime. I might do well with another dog in the household, provided it's a good match!

Smart & Trained: I already know my basic commands and am ready to show off how good I can be.

Leash Manners in Progress: I am strong and enthusiastic, so I am still working on my leash manners. I’m looking for a confident, dog-savvy handler who can continue my training and show me the ropes.

My Ideal Home:

I would be an incredible addition to an active, adult-only home. I'd love a family that has the patience to work with me on my leash walking and who will appreciate my vocal, loving nature.

If you are looking for a loyal, fun-loving companion who is ready to shower you with affection, please come meet me today!

Thank you for considering adopting a Rescue Ranch dog. While they are with us, each and every rescue dog receives the best of care in a loving and nurturing environment. Their routines include daily playgroups or partnering with dog buddies, quality time walking or being groomed, and two meals a day with dog biscuits for dessert.

What happens next

  1. Contact Rescue Ranch using the button. AdoptNearby does not take applications.
  2. They will send you their application or ask a few questions about your home.
  3. Most organizations arrange a meet, sometimes a home visit, then a small adoption fee that usually covers spay or neuter and vaccines. That fee is paid to Rescue Ranch, never to AdoptNearby.
  4. Read the dogs care guide so you arrive prepared.
