“Although he is still young he has been taking everything in his stride since being in foster care.

“Being a typical puppy, one moment Scooby could be literally bouncing off the walls and the next curling up on your lap for a snooze. His foster family have been working hard to keep Scooby’s days as physically and mentally stimulating as possible.”
