More: Scout is extremely intelligent and energetic puppy who loves to be outside exploring. He is a loyal companion to my father in law who is a retired U.S. Army Sargent having served our county for over 20 years. Scout has given new purpose to my Veteran father in law’s days with daily exercise, routine, and companionship. Scout has natural birding and herding instincts and is always friendly to any people and dogs he meets.
