Additional Details
- May need extra time to warm up in his new home, but once he's comfortable he loves people and activity and likes to be at the center of whatever's going on
- Very curious and likes to say hello to everyone he meets on walks
- Loves to sit and cuddle with his people
- Enjoys playing with frisbees
- Recently went on a Dog's Day Out field trip and had a great time. Here's what his human companion had to say: "He loves people, including little kids. He gives the sweetest kisses and snuggles. I bet he'll be a velcro dog. He was very interested in food and may have had a little bacon. He walked pretty well on a leash and can jump super high! He definitely has a lot of energy and is truly a sweet, sweet dog!"
- Knows sit and is treat-motivated
- Ready to be a loyal, easygoing companion!
- Tends to be socially awkward and unsure around other dogs and may tend to avoid them; may prefer to be the only dog in his new home (dog intro recommended)
This pet qualifies for our 7-day Foster-to-Adopt program. If you're interested in fostering to adopt, please reach out to fosterinquiry@arl-iowa.org.
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.
