My story

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

Mr. Archibald is a man with impeccable taste! ??

At this stage in life, Archie knows exactly who he is and what he wants: a calm, loving home with his favorite girl by his side. He’s the kind of guy who opens doors (metaphorically, at least), takes slow walks in the sunshine, and enjoys a good nap while keeping a watchful eye on his domain.

Archibald would be a perfect match for a lady looking for a loyal guardian with impeccable manners. He’s house trained, walks nicely on leash, and has shown gentlemanly respect to our shelter cat. With other dogs, he prefers a polite introduction and tends to gravitate toward the calm crowd, no rowdy youngsters for this refined fella.

If you’re ready to be adored by a wise, affectionate companion who’ll always have your back, Archibald is ready to take your hand and your heart. ??

Age: 8 years
Mixed Breed: Treeing Cur Mix
Other Dogs: Selective. Can be friends with dogs who are laid back and similar in temperament. Slow and controlled intros needed. Might do best as the only dog in his home.
Cats: Friendly with cats.
Kids: No children for now.
Weight: 55 pounds
Home Type: Active
Leash Behavior: Walks nicely
Known Commands: Sit, Come, Touch, Down. Knows his name.
Other notes: Prefers women. House trained. Should be crate trained. Needs controlled exposure to new people and dogs. He doesn`t require a lot of exercise and isn`t a fan of frequent/new visitors at home. He can always be put away in a separate room when visitors stop by.

If you are interested in adopting Archibald please fill out our online application at highsierraanimalrescue.org. Once your application has been reviewed and approved we will work with you to schedule an appointment.
Please no `drop-ins` to view dogs without an appointment.
All High Sierra Animal Rescue dogs are spayed or neutered, up-to-date on age appropriate shots, micro-chipped, tested for heart worm, given heart worm preventative medication each month, and de-wormed. HSAR provides training advice and one-on-one help with our adopted dogs as needed.
