Skamp is a very sweet boy who minds very well and really wants to please. But he has a troubled past that requires special understanding. A few years ago, Skamp responded to a couple of fearful and stressful situations by biting. Even though he hasn't repeated this in the last 4 years, we still feel he should go to an adults-only home with terrier experience, patience, and sensitivity to ensure that the situation doesn't repeat itself. Skamp gets along fine with dogs around his size (18 lbs.) but dislikes bigger dogs. Skamp does have a strong prey drive and would probably chase a cat if it would run. And he likes to bark, especially when he sees other animals outside. But, despite these issues, Skamp truly is a good, well-behaved boy who is reliably housetrained and just loves to lie on the couch next to his person. Skamp is 12 years old and really deserves to spend his golden years in a loving forever home of his own. His forever home should be within driving distance of his fosterhome (near Dayton, OH) to ensure a smooth and happy transition.
