Scamper is a handsome, loving and affectionate, three to four-year-old, 55-pound, male, Shepherd-mix looking for a loving home. Scamper came from Gary Animal Control after being found as a stray. Sadly, he tested positive for heartworm and has gone through treatment. Scamper seems to get along with most other friendly dogs. He loves people, melts when brushed and pet, but is hesitant and wary of strangers. Scamper knows how to sit on command and takes treats gently. Scamper is now healthy, neutered, heartworm-treated, micro-chipped, and up-to-date on rabies and distemper vaccines. To meet and possibly adopt, foster, or bring him into your rescue, please contact Pam at gracial@comcast.net or 815-651-0871. His adoption fee of $75 benefits rescued pets. He is currently being kenneled in Steger, Illinois, and would love to get out of a kennel and into a home setting.
