—

– Sweet boy who loves to snuggle and give kisses once he feels comfortable

– Can be shy and reserved at times, and is looking for people who will treat him with kindness and understanding and let him go at his own pace when he needs that

– Knows sit, shake and down and is an expert at catching treats in his mouth

– Enjoys walks and does best with a harness

– Young, noisy or busy children can be too much for him; looking for a mature home where all members of the household are old enough to understand his signals and respect when he needs his space

– Can be socially awkward and unsure around other dogs; would be most comfortable with a slow introduction to new dogs (dog intro recommended)

This pet qualifies for our 7-day Foster-to-Adopt program. If you’re interested in fostering to adopt, please reach out to meetme@arl-iowa.org.

The ARL’s shelter software requires that we choose a primary breed for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most dogs we are only guessing at primary breed. We get to know each dog as an individual and do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not breed label.
