Meet Scottie

Scottie is a 4 month old male Australian Shepherd mix who weighs in at 14 pounds.  This pup's adoption fee is $500.  If you are still interested, please read more below. Scottie came to Illinois all the way from Texas. He is happy to be out of the van but does enjoy car rides. Scottie is a sweet, happy, friendly boy. He has not met anyone that he does not like.  He is almost 5 months old so he is in full puppy mode. He is learning what is a toy and what is not supposed to be taken and used as a toy.  He loves to show his affection and loves to get in back especially with belly rubs. He is not sure what to do on a leash and just wants to run. He has a lot of energy and is ready for his forever home and new adventures. This pup is micro-chipped, up to date on all vaccinations, and neutered. The new family will be required to complete a basic obedience course of their choosing.  Please note ARF does not approve applications for any puppy under 6 months of age to families that live outside of Illinois and/or beyond 100 miles of Wheaton or Glen Ellyn, IL.  A meeting will not be scheduled until you have an approved application, so if you're interested in adopting this pup fill out an online application today!  https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/  Once your application has been approved, an ARF volunteer will contact you to arrange a meeting.  ARF is an all volunteer organization.  Due to a high volume of applications, we are often unable to respond to questions until your application has been approved.  Thank you for your patience!
