Story
This young boy, ARCHIE is perhaps 2 or 3 yrs young, about 20lbs and we think possibly a schnauzer/poodle mix. Found stray in late DEC, never claimed, and now fully vaccinated and neutered. ARCHIE is currently in a foster home with other dogs (female and male, all older, all larger than him). Like many young dogs HE can be a little intrusive meeting other dogs (smelling them up close and personal); he does he take correction well from other dogs. This young boy will definitely need daily playtime, a walk or run time to help him release his energy, and a fenced yard is required for our young adoptable friend. ARCHIE can be independent, shows no separation anxiety, does very well with car rides, loves exploring new territory, seems confident, and well socialized, (unsure about cats) . HE is a very smart boy, but will show his stubborn streak at times; so, consistent training is highly recommended. We are still searching for the special reward that motivates him for training. he does not seem to be “treat motivated”.
ARCHIE is crate trained, house trained, and knows: Sit and Lay down. He is learning to “walk on leash”… the shorter the leash the better for now. He is best described as: a Snuggle buddy / lap boy, Sweet, silly, Happy Go Lucky boy ;-) ARCHIE has very little (if any) shedding; his coat is potentially hypoallergenic but requires frequent brushing and professional grooming to prevent matting.
We’ve been told… ARCHIE is a bit of a goofball as well as a constant companion and maybe even a hint of “free spirit”. He has not been tested w/cats.
We typically recommend children over the age of 12 for a dog this young.
He is currently located in foster care in Miami County, OH
