My story

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

Meet Mr Archie!

Archie is a rescue off the euthanasia list - he came from a hoarding situation where he was devoid of human interaction and touch. He is going to take time - but he’s extremely young; food motivated, and learning the ropes of life.

The pluses:
Crate trained
Leash trained
Potty trained - but may need to learn new routine in a new home

What he needs to work on:
Human touch
Human grabs
Barking in the dark or when someone gets up fast

In the short time he has been in his foster home he has come strides and bounds! He will be a long term project. At this time no little kids - we want to prevent any insecure nips. Teenagers or those that are used to dogs and will ignore him will be fine!

The way to his heart….. food motivation. He actually loves my pets and massage sessions once I have him in my lap. He really wants to be a normal dog, it’s just going to be a long time investment transformation!

He does bark at dogs at first meeting then becomes best buds given a proper intro and a happy playful friend!
