Story
Where do you start when telling Arlo’s story? This big, sweet boy has been through it all and has emerged as a gentle, loving goofball with a new zest for life.
Arlo was neglected, abused, chained, starved, and eventually shot in the head. Miraculously, the bullet did not permanently damage his brain, eyesight, or sinuses, and Arlo made a full recovery from it... and as they say the rest is history!
Arlo is a new dog and is ready to find his forever home and start his new life! Arlo LOVES to play with other dogs and it would be ideal if he were adopted into a home with another playful, med/large-sized dog that he could become best friends with. Arlo has lived successfully in his foster home with two small, older dogs and four cats. He loves to go on walks and bounces around at the door any time he thinks he’s about to get one. He loves shorter 1-3 mile hikes and being outdoors with his person. He also loves his toys and keeps busy by moving them around the house and yard. He gets very excited any time he gets a new toy.
Arlo is approximately 5 years old and is an 82 lb., neutered male Labrador/American Bulldog mix. He is very gentle and good-natured, and loves his human most of all. He is a “Velcro dog” and a major snuggle bunny, and just wants to be wherever you are in the house. He likes to hang out in the yard sometimes and watch the world go by through the fence, but he is mainly a house-dog and a member of the family. He can be somewhat shy or wary with new people, but it doesn’t take much for him to warm up with some head scratches and treats. He knows how to “sit,” and is very quick to learn.
