Meet Arlo, a brilliant and vibrant soul looking for a home where he can get a lot of attention and a lot of walks. This adult dog is a bundle of joy, brimming with energy and affection. He weighs 34 pounds and likes car rides, fetch, running, tugging, toys, and walks. Arlo is incredibly smart, always eager to learn new tricks and solve puzzles. He has already mastered the sit, come, no, and fetch commands. His friendly and playful nature makes him a delightful companion, always ready for a game or a cuddle. Despite being a bit noisy, jumpy, and intensely excitable, Arlo`s lovable antics only add to his charm. He`s house trained and thrives on interaction, never wanting to be alone, making him an ideal family member. He enjoys leading the way on a leash but if he wanders off while off leash, he`ll come back if you call him. Arlo loves interacting with other dogs, though his play style can be a bit boisterous for young children so he`ll need to live with kids at least nine years old. He was given up because his family didn`t have enough time for him. Adopt Arlo today and fill your home with boundless love and fun! (tw 1/11/2026)
