Scooby's Fund

Scooby was a Great Plains SPCA dog that suffered greatly from severe separation anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder. Scooby was at the shelter for more than a year, like so many large dogs that find themselves in animal shelters with few interested adopters due to the pet overpopulation crisis. During Scooby’s time with us, in addition to anxiety medication, our Behavior Team provided intense behavior modification to manage his stress, but ultimately, it was not enough for Scooby and we were unable to save him even with the enormous effort and commitment from staff, volunteers, and Board Members. Scooby was humanely euthanized on October 30, 2023. This was the only peace we were able to provide for him in the end. All donations to the Scooby Fund support our Behavior Team, a group of highly skilled and trained individuals who passionately dedicate their time to helping dogs like Scooby achieve a positive outcome in a forever home.
