Adopt Scruff

Cairn Terrier · Male · Adult · 7 years

Home requirements: Meet Scruff, an independent older chap ready to find his forever home. He’s a big fan of cheese which will be a great reward for continued training. He’s quite happy in his own company although, with a strong relationship in place he enjoys a good back ruffle. Walking routes that are peaceful without too many other dogs about will be ideal.

He’ll be best matched with adopters who are familiar with the Terrier breed and can offer a home where he can be centre of attention as the only dog. With children, Scruff, can live with older secondary school age. With a patient family Scruff will make a lovely addition to the family. Available at Darlington, Sadberge
