Scrappy-Doo!

A happy Scrappy! - June 2010

Scrappy's a good boy!

Many bully rescues have an INCREDIBLE life story, and Scrappy is NO exception! Marked as "EVIDENCE" for about a year of his life, Scrappy was used as a BAIT DOG by his human. Once everything was said and done, and the bastard convicted of dog fighting, the kind-hearted judge of this case ordered Scrappy "euthanized" - What's so "MERCY" about KILLING an innocent animal who is NOT in any pain or suffering? So, some people who ACTUALLY cared about animals, and weren't just doing a job like that judge was, sent out the S.O.S. beacons to save Scrappy!

Scrappy now lives at Pets Alive. He's lived there about 4 or 5 years. A small, muscular, BLACK PIT BULL with tons of scars scattered throughout, dogs like Scrappy have ZERO chance at most shelters. But man if Scrappy doesn't love his humans! Scrappy MIGHT lick you to death! I should know! I've had it happen to me! Kneeling on the ground, the Scrappy roared up and just started LICKING MY FACE CONTINUOUSLY!! It was a sight, I tell ya!

Scrappy loves people. Probably Scrappy's FAVORITE person in the world is a Pets Alive Volunteer by the name of Trudy Spiller - even if she does take pleasure in having him dressed up like a TURTLE every now and then! Trudy and Scrappy spend a lot of time together, and believe me he just LOVES the attention he gets from her!

Just like so many bully breeds, Scrappy's a good boy who just wants to please his humans the best he knows how.
