Are you in a rock band? Do you yell at the TV when your favorite sports team is losing? Use the vacuum a little too often? Scout won’t mind, because he’s deaf! He makes lots of cute noises that are mighty – he’s a bit of a screamer. Scout just doesn’t know how loud he can be, but he’s looking for a family who finds his quirks charming. Scout is 8 years old and doesn’t mind a little rough play, head nudges and butt scratches. He’s gentle, sweet and has a lot of love to give. Meet him at APS of Durham today!
