Story
Chunk is a 7yr old mix breed (border collie/?Pit) kissy, lovable pal. I was told border collie/pit mix. I acquired him from an older couple in a rehome site. Vet says he looks more border collie than pit. Chunk is great with people. Chunk is amazing with other dogs at daycare. However at home he does not get along with one of my two other dogs. For a new home Chunk needs lots of opportunity to run. Chunk needs a lot of affection and one on one time. Chunk may be better as the only dog in the home. Chunk needs an experienced foster or adopted owner with lots of patience and time.

Story
❤️Sometimes love is right in front of you ... and you just miss the connection. This dog is part of our Missed Connections club - a group of our most patient pups who've been waiting longer than others to find their soulmate. Take a closer look - they could be your perfect match! Adoption fee: $45. A lifetime of love: Priceless.❤️---HOW TO ADOPT: This animal is available for adoption by appointment. To schedule a time to meet this animal, please email meetme@arl-iowa.org.---- New people and things can be scary for her, particularly men, but she recovers pretty well if you let her take things at her own pace; she warmed up to the woman in her foster home within a couple of hours, while it took almost a week for her to be comfortable with the calm, quiet man in the home - Once she has warmed up, she is a laid-back cuddle bug who loves being near her people; recently began wagging her tail in her foster home and getting the zoomies! - Will likely open up even more once she's in a home environment and has had time to decompress - Sights and sounds may startle her if they're new, loud or scary - Knows sit, down and outside; loves treats but responds especially well to praise - Has been fully potty trained in her foster home; just remember that any dog may need time to get used to a new routine - Does well on a leash, but may pull occasionally, especially if she sees other dogs or people - Will likely do best in a quiet home with more mature family members- Has been doing very well with the dog in her foster home and likes snuggling up close to him; generally laid back with other dogs but does have some FOMO - if one dog gets a treat, she wants one at the exact same time; would probably do well with a like-minded dog friend who is not too pushy and is OK with her desire to snuggle (dog intro recommended)- Did well with cats in a previous home - Has the cutest underbite! The ARL's shelter software requires that we choose a primary breed for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most dogs we are only guessing at primary breed. We get to know each dog as an individual and do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not breed label. Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 55 Age: 5yrs 3mths 4wks

HOW TO ADOPT: This animal is available for adoption by appointment. To schedule a time to meet this animal, please email meetme@arl-iowa.org.--- This girl is a little unsure of the world, but is making steady progress in her foster home learning about all the wonderful things there is to being a dog! While she continues her confidence journey, a young or busy home may be too much for her, and may be most successful with family members that are old enough to understand her need for space at times She has lived with cats in her previous home, and also has feline siblings in her foster home though still needs structured introductions to them in a new place, until she's reminded that they aren't playmates! Arrived to us with a suspected congenital deformity on one of her front paws, so she's missing a toe or two! This impacts her life very little, and is mostly a fun talking point for her at parties Would likely benefit from a calm and confident dog sibling to continue showing her how to navigate the world; would love to meet any resident pups in her next home prior to adoption! Does well in her crate when she has to be at home alone, and is working up to longer stretches contained. She really loves having something to keep her busy while her friends are away! Her foster family is confident she will blossom into a wonderful companion for someone who has the patience and understanding to continue helping her grow Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 40.8 Age: 1yrs 3mths 1wks
