Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi there! My name is Arlo, and even though I’ve had a bit of a bumpy start, I’m living proof that being an "underdog" just makes the victories sweeter. I might be a little different because I can’t see or hear much on my right side, but don’t let that fool you—it doesn’t slow me down for a second!
I’m a high-energy guy who is all about living life to the fullest. Whether we are solving complex puzzles, going for a long hike, or playing a high-speed game of tag, I just want to be right in the middle of the action. I’m incredibly resilient, and my main goal in life is to share my big heart and happy spirit with a family of my own.
If there is one thing I love as much as playing, it’s food! I’m a bit of a "foodie"—I love my kibble, your snacks, and even whatever my foster brother is eating. Because I get so excited about mealtime, I do my best work when I have my own private space and a slow-feeder bowl to help me savor every bite. I’m a smart boy who is house-trained and working so very hard on my crate-training. Potential adopters should know that I am still learning my crate is wonderful, safe space.
I’m definitely looking for a house with a yard rather than an apartment so I can really stretch my legs. I think kids are great, and I’m very curious about cats; as long as the kitties are "dog-savvy" and used to a curious pup like me, I think we’d get along just fine.
I’m a social butterfly who loves other dogs, though sometimes I get so caught up in the fun that I need a gentle reminder to take a hint when my friends need a break.
Being a young guy, I’ll occasionally push the boundaries to see what I can get away with, but I’m very responsive to training and cues. I genuinely want to please my people and am always eager to learn. I’ve been called stoic and brave, but at the end of the day, I’m just a happy pup looking for a family who will include me in all their adventures! 🖤🐾
