MacDuff is an affectionate
scottie with a sweet and loving personality. He
is 12 years old, in good health and enjoys going for short
walks. MacDuff is house trained and knows about doggie
doors. He marks his territory but is learning not to mark
in the house.
MacDuff is a laid back
quiet fellow except when you turn on the water hose.
He LOVES to chase the water from the garden hose and
jumps, whirls, barks and races after it like a pup! He
is a scottie on a mission when water is involved!
MacDuff is a talker who grumbles and grunts when
you scratch his back. He likes to play tug of war
and will roll on his back and kick his legs while playing!
MacDuff is an owner release.
He has beautiful brown eyes and a heart of gold.
MacDuff deserves the very best for his senior years and will
make some lucky person or family a wonderful and devoted companion.
