Additional Details

– May prefer to explore and do his own thing here in the shelter, but will likely open up more once he’s in a loving home environment and has had time to decompress

– Recently went on a Dog’s Day Out field trip: “He loves to play and explore. He didn’t bark once at other people or animals who walked by us. He’s the nicest dog I’ve ever spent time with.”

– Knows sit – good boy!

– Very excited about the big world out there, so he’ll do best with a harness on walks

– Can be socially awkward around other dogs but may enjoy like-minded dog friends (dog intro recommended)

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.
