My story

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

~ ADOPTION PENDING ~

You may meet and apply to adopt Arden at our ADOPTION EVENT on SUNDAY, JUNE 12th from 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM at PETCO in NEWPORT BEACH. (Our event is held INSIDE of the PETCO store.) adoptpetmatch@gmail.com

*~* IMPORTANT: In addition to socialization and exercise outside the home, Arden requires a home with an enclosed yard that will provide plenty of space for exercise. Please understand this is a requirement and there will be NO EXCEPTIONS. Thank you. *~*

Arden is a male Old English Sheepdog mix approximately 2 years old. He is a nice sized boy, currently weighing 55 pounds full grown. He is a bit underweight and should reach an ideal weight of 65 pounds or so. Arden has a classic white and gray coat that is soft and wavy. He came in to the shelter neglected and matted so his coat is a bit thin at the moment and the fur on his ears has been shaved. In just a short amount of time with proper care and nutrition, Arden is going to have a glorious, thick, stunning coat of fur. Arden is a gorgeous animal with a show dog bounce to his step and an easy going, mellow temperament. He will flop down on the floor and nap if nothing is going on. He adores people and loves companionship. Arden follows commands readily and wants to please his people. He has wonderful indoor manners and is content to trot around after you inside the house. Arden rides perfectly in the car. He sits on the back seat quietly and stays calm and still, while gazing out the window as if he were a person. Outdoors, Arden loves to romp in the grass and although he is a bigger boy, he is as gentle as a bunny rabbit when playing. Arden loves attention and will bond closely with one or two people in the household. He has a loyal nature and loves routine. He walks nicely on leash and loves to slowly explore the neighborhood on walks. Arden is excellent with other dogs both big and small. He likes to play and will get all puppyish if he finds an entertaining doggie playmate. Arden also likes treats and will take them carefully from your hand. This dog is a gentle giant for sure. Arden would prefer a home without any children since kids seem to make him very uncomfortable. We are not sure if this is from something negative with children in his past, but he definitely prefers adults. Arden deserves a home that cherishes him for the sweet, sensitive dog that he is. He has a lot of love to give and will show his devotion with sweet little kisses and good manners. Arden is well-behaved in public and behaves appropriately when out and about. He is looking for his new forever loving home today!

Arden’s adoption donation is $525 (*TAX DEDUCTABLE). He has been NEUTERED, MICROCHIPPED, VACCINATED, DEWORMED, DEFLEAED and PROFESSIONALLY GROOMED. Also included is his collar with ID, harness, leash, folder with all of his records, a great PETCO coupon book, and a fun goodie bag with toys, etc.

Arden is being fostered by Pet Match Rescue Foster Volunteers, Tami and Gregg and is ready for his forever home.

You may meet and apply to adopt Arden at our ADOPTION EVENT on SUNDAY, JUNE 12th from 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM at PETCO in NEWPORT BEACH located at 1280 Bison Ave., Newport Beach, CA 92660. adoptpetmatch@gmail.com
