My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

- Sweet boy, knows stay and come



- Loves people and companionship; he will even crawl into your lap once you are friends!



- Will benefit from a mature home to help him build confidence in new situations



- Does well for baths/grooming with familiar people



- Tends to be an introvert around other dogs and may prefer one-on-one interactions or smaller groups of dog friends; may not be comfortable at dog parks or at large, dog-friendly events (dog intro recommended)



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.
