My story

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

Arthur and his brother Merlin were surrendered to us by their owner. They are what we call "unwanted Christmas puppies"... they received these pups as Christmas gifts, kept them for a few months, and then decided they didn't want them anymore. I don't know how anyone could NOT want these guys... they are so sweet!!! They are around 10 months old -- Arthur weighs 17 pounds and Merlin weighs 12 pounds.

Both of these boys love to play with one another and other dogs once they get used to them. Merlin is more of a "momma's boy" and a cuddle bug, whereas Arthur is a little more reserved and likes to watch from a distance until he feels safe... then he loves to love on you too! These boys ride well in the car, but don't do so great on a leash! With some training, I am sure they would become more comfortable on leash. Either of these boys would make a great addition to almost any family.

*Oh, these boys DO shed if you were wondering. That is one of the reasons they were given up.*

If you are interested in adding him to your family, please go to www.goofyfootrescue.org to complete an online adoption application. He is currently being fostered in west Tennessee. He will be transported once his adoption is finalized. Transport runs to the following cities: Harrisonburg, VA; Hagerstown, MD; Harrisburg, PA; Allentown, PA; Bedminster, NJ; Southington, CT; Willington, CT.
