My story

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

- Super smart and LOVED figuring out the agility course in our dog park - he's a natural at it!



- Loves to learn and has great focus - especially if you have treats - so would be a lot of fun to train (already knows sit, shake, down, stay and come!)



- May take some time to warm up to new dogs and may prefer some dogs over others; would be most comfortable with a slow introduction to new dogs (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.
