My story

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

if serious apply at
www.sadt.info
he's located in Redding CA

If interested apply on our site
if he's still up he's still available
please make sure you fit all the categories before applying
we are only looking for a match and are not in any rush to get him out

you must be willing and able to come here to Redding for at least one meet and greet
after you are fully approved as a possible match

looking for the right home about 3 hours circumference from Redding
or if there's a real match here in Redding area of course

Archer the huge tall blond boy
will be 2 years old on DEC 8th old, 130 plus pounds, about 27 inches tall

Archer lives with 3 adults middle aged, 2 women and one man, the woman care and train him plus there are 6 other dogs in the home
senior dogs mainly


Archer has become a wonderful young adult after many months of training and consistency here with us
he's no longer the spoiled teenager that he was when he arrived at the foster home but that is because we do not let him get away with anything and are looking for someone that knows and is a natural leader

he has blossomed into a great companion dog that loves being outside with his human buddy
Archer is very loved by his fosters but they cannot keep him they want a lot more for him than they can offer

What we are looking for for him

A dedicated person not the average Joe
you MUST be a down to earth without an overwhelming ego
you should be a physically and mentally strong and fit
and knows what leadership means

A min of one fenced acre with secure fencing 5 feet tall or taller

( he is not a runner nor escaper more on that and everything if you are what we want for Archer)


He loves the many acres at his foster home to explore but stays close by and entertains himself
close to the fosters when outside with his toys mainly a rubber kong football that he loves to squeek laying in a dog cot
rolling around for like 15 min a day so be prepared for squeeking toys

If you don't have a pond or Creek baby pools are a must and more then one
He has 4 in the summer and 2 all year and will use them all year
He has a heavy coat so gets easily hot

He runs like the wind or like a bullet very fast for such a large dog very elegant a big handsome boy that's forsure
with a huge personality to match

Archer was born to enjoy life that's all he wants with someone that loves him
and is his natural leader that will enforce rules and boundaries each and every time
as he is a smart cookie so you better be as smart 

Archer is a large fearless companion best buddy and if you know the CUR breed you know exactly what I mean
for the right person with the right environment he will be fairly easy but don't plan on easy

looking for someone that has raised at least 5 dogs in your life and had them until old age large breed or the Cur breed

He's fine with all the foster dogs but we are not looking to have him in a home with another dog of any kind
or any other animals

maybe after a year of bonding and you want another dog that may be possible he has never shown any aggression but over excitement seeing other dogs or people etc

He also loves to chase birds and anything flying
so no birds etc but we are working on that as well fosters do not allow chasing any critters ever nor hurting any
He is a very vocal dog and loves to talk to you
he's very vocal when he plays as well
to someone that does not understand dogs well
the vocal part could be misunderstood for aggression along with his excitement
however we know him best and know it's not so

eventually he will be able to control that more
we always work on that

No close neighbors with dogs like next door there are non at the foster so he's not used to it and would just be one more distraction when settling in

no cats either he likes to bark at the Squirrls that tease him but foster does not allow the barking
so he comes in right away so no bad habit started
Energy level
0-10
maybe a 7
he loves to play in the morning
and or go for walks depends on the weather
he loves to run free on secure property with his people right there

Archer is a young dog and full of life
he's funny and sometimes a hand full
he can be stubborn but you being a true leader he will easily give in
he knows his commands and is very good at it as well as hand signals
he can stay at the open door for a few minutes before he's allowed to go out
he may not do that for you right away but he listens very well to the fosters

With him you will always feel secure in your home
You must be a stable home owner meaning you do not rent and we will need some proof
You must be adult and have raised a few dogs since on your own your own dogs not friends or parents
Archer is not for a beginner
Prefer a very experienced
Person that truly understands dogs

Archer will come with all his stuff
from crate to toys
We have tons of videos on utube as well
like Archer running with a huge branch etc

adoption fee, refs, pics and videos of home, fenced yard
