Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Please contact GHe for more information about this pet.Thanks for your interest in a pet from A.R.F.! If you see a pet here, they are still available for adoption and you should apply through our adoption application on our website at https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/ Michelle is a 2 year old female Lab mix who weighs in at approximately 45 pounds. This dog's adoption fee is $450. If you are still interested, please read more below. Michelle is a sweet, gentle, low-key dog. She has significantly improved since she first came to us. Michelle can take some time to get comfortable, but once she does, she is truly a sweetheart! She loves to cuddle with her humans! Michelle is calm and is good with kids once she gets to know them. She enjoys walks in the park and does well on a leash. She also loves to run free in large outdoor areas, but comes back immediately when called. She is housetrained and is able to alert her foster when she needs to go outside! Michelle will need time to get comfortable and acclimate to her new home. It took her a couple months to feel ready to leave the room that her bed is in, but now she enjoys the whole house and loves to be wherever the family is. She is still fearful of other dogs and new or unusual noises, but she just needs someone who can work with her. Meetings with Michelle will need to be at her foster’s home. It will take multiple meetings with Michelle. She is a truly special dog that deserves to find her forever home where she can flourish! Attached is a video of Michelle running around and tossing her own ball in the air to run after it again! She also loves to wiggle around in the grass!
