My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Scout is a super handsome, energetic 18 month old Australian Sheppard mix from a rescue, smart as a whip and can figure out any puzzle. He does great with long walks and really enjoys the outdoors.

Scout will be successful with a large fenced yard or ranch, no children and possibly a second dog to keep his mind ever active. Scout's new owner must be experienced as he has an inclination to show reactivity and resource guarding his owner. He has anxiety that is at the root of this behavior and takes medication to help with this.
His breed is mostly Australian Sheppard, with DNA also showing American Pit Bull and Chow Chow and will be an excellent herding dog. He has anxiety that is at the root of this behavior and takes medication to help with this.
