Scottie in Franklin, TN
JUST ADOPTED!
Here is Scottie with his new family…
Meet Scottie, an almost 2-year-old Blenheim Cavalier with the most loving, happy-go-lucky disposition. He truly doesn’t know a stranger and gets along beautifully with humans and other dogs. Scottie is incredibly playful and affectionate, and he would be a wonderful addition to any home- preferably one with an owner who appreciates higher-energy dogs like him and can keep up! You would never know he was a rescue based on his personality.
Scottie’s favorite activities include cuddling on laps and showering his humans with kisses, playing keep-away with toys, and following his humans everywhere. He is the definition of a Velcro dog! Scottie also enjoys playing with other small dogs, though he is slowly gaining familiarity with cats and tends to bark at and chase them.
Scottie was micro-chipped and is now up-to-date on his vaccinations and preventatives. While in rescue, Scottie was treated for an ear infection that has since cleared up. He was also neutered during this time, and his teeth were professionally cleaned.
One amazing quality of Scottie’s is his intelligence. When he first entered rescue, he didn’t know how to walk with a leash. Over time, he has shown tremendous progress and is learning quickly! Scottie needs further assistance with potty training, but there is no doubt he can learn with a committed owner. Scottie would benefit most with an owner who is home most of the day to continue that reinforcement.
Scottie tends to stick close to his human and doesn’t venture far, though he should still be leashed in unfenced areas. Being an escape artist is not part of his M.O.! If his routine includes daily walks, he would fare just fine in a home without a fence.
If you want a loyal companion who won’t leave your side and would be an excellent fit in any environment (especially one with children), please make sure you have an application submitted and email Liz Nigh at lizcavalierusa@gmail.com to let her know of your interest in adopting Scottie. Please identify which state you are located in the email.
