Scooby - Loving, Snuggles, Friendly, Good w/Dogs & Cats - Rhodesian Ridgeback Dog for Adoption in Houston, Texas

Scooby's story is one of resilience and hope. As a young puppy, he was living under a bridge with homeless individuals when his foster mom witnessed him being mistreated. She stepped in, rescued him, and gave him the chance to experience what every puppy deserves—love, safety, and a caring home. Now, Scooby is thriving and ready to find a forever family of his own.

Scooby is a 5-month-old Rhodesian Ridgeback mix who weighs 38 pounds. He is up to date on his vaccinations, micro-chipped and is too young to be neutered.
This handsome boy is full of puppy energy and would be a wonderful companion for an active family. Whether it's hiking, playing in the backyard, or going on long walks, Scooby is always ready for an adventure. He walks nicely on a leash and enjoys exploring the world with his people.

After a day of fun, Scooby is all about the Snuggles. He loves to Cuddle and, if you'll let him, will happily sleep beside you all night. He's kennel trained, potty trained, and continuing to learn good puppy manners as he grows.

Scooby has a big personality and an even bigger heart. He has done well around other dogs and currently lives in a foster home with multiple cats. While he hasn't lived with children, he loves the attention they give him when meeting them in public and greets them with happy excitement.

Scooby has overcome a difficult start in life without losing his loving spirit. He's ready to leave his past behind and begin the next chapter with a family who will cherish him forever.

Scooby's adoption fee is $275. If you're looking for a playful, affectionate, and loyal best friend, Scooby is waiting to meet you! He will see a vet for a final inspection before he travels to his new home!
