Hi … my name is Scrappy! Read my bio to find out everything you need to know about me.
If you think I might be the perfect pup for you, go to www.allamericanmuttrescue.org/forms and complete the adoption application online.
Oh Scrappy … sweet Scrappy! This handsome little Chiweenie boy came to AAMR with two sisters and their Mom. Scrappy was the big boy of the litter, and he has the joy for life to match! The ‘kids’ were about 10 weeks old when they arrived, so they were no longer dependent on Mom and their personalities were beginning to shine. Very social and outgoing, Scrappy seems to be a bit on the adventurous side. A typical puppy, he is full of wiggles and kisses … and curiosity. Oh … and did you notice the cutest ‘spot’ on the top of his head? If you’re interested in adding a lot of activity to your family, a puppy might be perfect for you. Like all babies, puppies do require lots of extra attention and training/teaching and with love and positive reinforcement, Scrappy could become your favorite ‘kid’!
Approximate age/birthdate: February 18, 2022
Weight/size: guesstimated adult size 18 – 25 lbs
Housebroken: Working on it. With adopting a puppy comes housetraining duties for the new family!
Crate trained: YES, although he will still have potty accidents in the crate when not taken outside frequently
Personality: sweet, happy, social, energetic, very loving and wiggly
Energy level: medium with frequent bursts of high
Fenced yard required?: Definitely preferred – Scrappy would love having a safe place that he could run and explore off-leash. He should never be off-leash outside a fenced area. He can move very quickly and if he gets away, he will probably be more interested in exploring than coming back to his person when called.
Does he/she jump fences? NO
Leash walk with manners: He is learning to walk on leash. He (and most dogs) should always have a well-fitting harness and a fixed-length (never a retractable leash) leash when walking outside a fenced area.
Obedience training: NO but he is ready for a puppy class for socialization and basic obedience.
Riding in vehicles: RIDES OK although he may be a little nervous and may potty in his crate
Spayed/neutered: YES
Up-to-date on routine vaccinations: YES
Microchipped: YES
Social with other dogs: YES
Social with cats: Has not been around cats in foster care, but we bet he would try his best to get a cat to play.
Good with children: Will probably be best with respectful, calm children ages 10 and up. Remember puppies can’t tell puppy toys from ‘human kid’ toys!
Adoption donation: $250
We are an all-volunteer group, so please be patient and understand that it takes an average of 7-14 days to process the applications including reference checks, follow-up questions and home visits. You can expedite the process by providing accurate email addresses for all your references. Time to make phone calls is limited and we often have multiple applications in process. We make every effort to move through them as quickly as possible.
When your application is approved, we will schedule a home visit/meet-and-greet to see if Scrappy picks you too.
If it seems that the adoption will be a good match for all, there is an adoption fee, and an adoption contract to be signed.
