My story

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

Meet Arlo! - potty trained and dog friendly!

Arlo is a stunningly handsome and large mixed breed dog clocking in at approximately 70 pounds! He came to us from an Animal Control facility where he stayed for a month or so. He is a goofy boy who loves sleeping on the back of the couch like a cat, and loves water so much he might just hop in the shower with you if you let him! From what we`ve learned here about Arlo is that he enjoys the company of people and other dogs. He`s pulls on leash but we are working with him on that. He enjoys learning new things especially when learning is accompanied by high value, delicious treats! We don`t know exactly what his breed mix is but we do know that he howls in the kennel when he gets lonely and wiggles his entire body when people approach his kennel! Arlo also thoroughly enjoys playing with other dogs! Its fun to watch him adjust his play style based on the size and play style of the other dog. If you are looking for a large, mixed breed, gorgeous boy to show off to all your friends then Arlo fits the bill! Please come by our Dedham location to meet him - he will not dissappoint!

Arlo is currently up to date on all vaccinations, has been spayed/neutered, microchipped and been seen by our vet team.

We require the following as part of the adoption process:
* Adopter must be 18 years of age or older

* Have a conversation with an ARL adoption counselor
