This sweet senior Schnauzer was found living on the streets of Texas. This poor little guy is severely arthritic and deaf. I can't imagine how scary and painful it was to live on the streets with nothing but concrete and dirt as his nightly bed. So many people passed by him everyday and just kept going, until he caught the eye of one special woman.
This amazing person took Scotty into her home and had him groomed & vetted before sending him to Maryland to find his fairy-tale ending - a loving home of his own.
Scotty is estimated to be 10 years old and weighs 22 pounds. He is on joint supplements for arthritis and will take an occasional pain pill when needed. He was recently neutered, chipped, vaccinated and even had a dental visit with several extractions. His bloodwork was slightly off, so he was tested for cushings, but the test was inconclusive. The vet suggests follow-up bloodwork in a few months.
Scotty loves attention, and has tested well with other dogs. He is not a fan of cats. Scotty walks well on a leash, and will let you know when he needs to go out to potty. He is low energy, but still enjoys playing with his toys on occasion.
