Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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


Scruffy was a stray , we got from the animal shelter they gave him his shots, heart worm test, microchip & neutered
We have had him a month he has visited the vet who thought him 1 or 2 years and he had LEPTO vaccination all was good.

He displays all the attitudes of a Cairn terrier but maybe not pure bred. He is high energy and needs lots of exercise & playtime, which we underestimated . We are old and are able to walk him but it is not enough.
Loves the dog park is comfortable with all the dogs there. Loves to run. Loves to be groomed .

A sweet dog just our size (8.8 Kg) but we cannot occupy him enough.
Check out the traits of Cairn terriers before you adopt him. We did not. Maybe the behavior issues are ours!
He has been crated at night likes chew toys. We taught him to sit and leave. He is highly trainable, food motivated.

We have his records, heart worm tablets for a year and he is wearing a SERESTO flea collar.
