Arrival story: Came to Waggin’ Tails from Detroit Animal Control injured and fully recovered with us.
Approximate age / Weight: 1.5 yrs old and 50 lbs.
Personality: Looking to upgrade your health routine with a personal trainer who also moonlights as a cuddle buddy? Meet Arnold! This energetic 1.5-year-old, 50-pound bundle of joy is not just any dog; he’s your new wellness coach. Arnold will have you marching on long walks, sharing your snacks (yes, he’s got his eyes on those extra calories), and snuggling up to ensure you don’t sneak away for a midnight snack. Think of him as your fitness guru with a side of fluff.
Arnold came to Waggin’ Tails from Detroit Animal Control in the summer of 2023, and though he had a rough start with an injury that required hip replacement surgery, he’s bounced back like the champ he is. Now, he’s all about living life to the fullest—fetching, playing, and probably eyeing your workout gear with a “Let’s go!” look.
He may not be the best fit for dog parks or daycare, especially if you’re a male husky, but he’s a charmer with lady dogs and always respects their personal space. Arnold is a water-loving dynamo, so if you’re into swimming, he’s your guy.
Looking for a high-energy companion who’ll keep you on your toes (and off the couch)? Arnold is adaptable to various home environments, as long as he gets his share of exercise and mental stimulation. If you’re up for the challenge of keeping up with this lively pup, he’s ready to keep pace with you and make your life a whole lot more fun.
