About Scruffy (Bonded to Patches)
Scruffy and Patches are a bonded brother-and-sister duo, approximately 4 years old, who are Pekingese/terrier mixes looking for a forever home together. They are spayed and neutered, vaccinated, and will be adopted as a pair. Scruffy is the easygoing comedian of the duo. He's chill, confident, cuddly, and just the right amount of cheeky. He loves his people, other dogs, toys, and a good nap. One of his favourite pastimes is grabbing a toy from the basket and throwing it around all by himself. Patches is the ultimate cuddlebug. She is affectionate, loving, playful, and absolutely adores…
