For Adopt a Pet and the PEDIGREE® brand, October is all about finding homes for dogs in shelters. Adopt this month for a PEDIGREE® Wet Food Pouch and a chance to win a Homecoming-style photo shoot and shelter donation.
My name is Arvin & my toxic trait is thinking I’m a lap dog even though I currently weigh 59 pounds. If you love cuddling & think personal space is optional, I’m your guy! It’s guessed that I’m about 5 years old & a lab mix. I had a rough start when I got to WI, but, after a few vet visits, it was determined I have hypothyroidism. I’ve started daily medication, I’m feeling better every day, & Mom says my extra weight is melting off! My future family will need to make sure I stick to my diet & get plenty of exercise, so I can get to a healthy weight, which, for me, is about 50 pounds. They’ll also need to be able to manage my twice daily medication & understand I will most likely be on it for the rest of my life. But, don’t worry! Hypothyroidism is easily managed with medication & doesn’t have an impact on how long I’ll live. I’m potty trained on a schedule & working on my crate training - I don’t love it in there, but I’m a very good boy & usually free roam in my foster home. I get along just fine with dogs & I love kids. Cats are unknown, but as long as they don’t bother me, I’m sure I’ll be fine. Think you’re ready for some serious snuggling? Get your application in to talk with my foster mom! DATCP#483538

Step 3: Meet and Greet
If approved, our adoption coordinator will set you up with the foster parent’s contact information. It is up to you to call the foster parent and schedule a meet and greet.
Step 4: Home Visit
