Additional Details

– Shy pup who can be fearful and may need extra time to warm up to new people and things; will likely open up in a home environment with patience and time

– Once he knows you he likes to stick close to you

– A huge foodie who loves all treats – they’re a great way to build trust with him and help him come out of his shell

– Has been uncomfortable with new things and lots of hustle and bustle, so a calm, quiet, predictable home would be best for him

– Was very excited to see snow recently and got major zoomies – it was adorable to see him running around, doing “play bows” and wagging his tail

– Tends to be an introvert around other dogs and may prefer one-on-one interactions or smaller groups of dog friends; may do better with calm, confident dogs (dog intro recommended)

– Young, noisy or busy children can be too much for him (mature home recommended)

– We don’t know his history with cats

– Overall, a really cute guy with a lot of potential – just needs a kind person to help him gain confidence so he can enjoy all the good things in life

All adoptable dogs and puppies are spayed/neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations (rabies and DA2PPV as appropriate for their age)

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.
