Story
Meet Arch – a rare little puppy who seems to have been born knowing how to be the perfect companion. Every once in a while a puppy comes along that makes everyone stop and wonder how he got to be so wonderful without much training or attention early in life. Arch is exactly that kind of puppy. From the moment he arrived in foster care, he has impressed everyone with his sweet nature, intelligence, and easygoing personality. Arch was born around December 8 and is a handsome brindle boy believed to be a Mountain Cur mix. At just three months old he weighs about 11 pounds, and we expect him to grow into a 35–40 pound adult depending on which side of the family tree shows up the most. One of the first things you’ll notice about Arch is his incredibly soft coat. His velvety fur makes you want to stroke his head and run your hand all the way down his back. And his personality is just as lovable as his looks. When he gets excited to see you, he hops around like a little bunny, full of joy and enthusiasm. Arch is a very people-oriented puppy. Rather than running off exploring on his own, he prefers to stay close and simply follow his people around the yard. Call his name and he comes running—his recall is already excellent and he seems to know his name right away. He’s a bright little guy who is eager to learn and connect with his humans. In his foster home, Arch lives with dogs of all sizes. He happily runs around with the big dogs and doesn’t mind the older, more serious little ladies who sometimes find his playful energy a bit much. His feelings never seem to get hurt—he just keeps bouncing along enjoying life. Like any young puppy, Arch is learning new things every day. He is currently figuring out how to walk on a leash and wear a collar for the first time. He is also working on house training and is learning both pee pads and outdoor potty breaks. He sleeps well in his crate and can usually make it almost all night. Arch is curious, alert, and full of personality. One of his favorite things is burrowing under blankets on the couch or in bed. He also has a funny little habit of collecting his foster mom’s bedroom shoes and proudly gathering them into his dog bed like treasured toys. This boy loves his meals and is always interested in whatever his humans are eating too, which will make food a great motivator for training. If you are looking for a loving, intelligent puppy who will grow into a loyal companion, Arch may be your once-in-a-lifetime dog. He has the personality, the brains, and the heart to become an incredible family member. Arch will be ready for adoption around March 20. He will be neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped, and dewormed before going home.
