About Scout
Scout is a very clever dog with an enquiring mind who likes to observe household activities with great interest. She is quiet living, with a peaceful presence around the home, spending a large part of her day curled up in her sunny spot. Well-mannered and sensitive, she is good on the lead but can be trusted off lead as well. She likes a good run but always returns to her foster carer. She has been living with a crew of foster dogs of all ages and accepts new dogs and is appropriate with puppies. She tends to get pushed out when it comes to pats and cuddles, but loves a bit of special time and a cuddle on the sofa. She manages a dog door well and could be left alone for part of the day. She could be rehomed to as a single dog, but would also make a good companion for another dog.
Scout and her siblings were rescued near death in a remote community. She was rehomed by another organisation to an inner city Sydney setting which really didn’t suit her. Her previous owner loved her and did not want to relinquish her, but eventually decided that Scout was too unhappy in a highly stimulating environment. She returned to our care in an anxious state and took a while to regain her mojo. We decided to give her as long as she needed, and Scout is now a mature, confident dog ready to find that special home with someone who will be there for her and to whom she can be devoted.
Our rescue and rehabilitation work takes place in Central Australia. Because of the scarcity of local adopters, we regularly rehome in South Australia. Scout is in foster care near Alice Springs, and her adoption fee covers a direct flight from Alice Springs to Adelaide.
