Story
- Busy pup who loves to connect with people through play and other activities; will likely enjoy physical activity and mental challenges to keep their bodies and brains busy- Tends to be socially awkward with other dogs; may like a dog friend or may prefer to be the only dog in his new home (dog intro required)- Loves going on walks and does best with a harness- Smart boy knows sit- Loves to learn and has great focus - especially if you have treats - so would be a lot of fun to train - Young, noisy or busy children can be too much for them (mature home recommended) 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: White Secondary Color: Brown Weight: 42 Age: 4yrs 2mths 0wks

HOW TO ADOPT: This dog is available for adoption by appointment. To schedule a time to meet her, please email meetme@arl-iowa.org.---- SUPER into treats and will perk up and wag her tail when she sees them - Loves going on walks and does best with a harness - Recently went on a Dog's Day Out field trip: "She is a very sweet, affectionate dog with high energy - a great walking or hiking companion." - May need some time to settle into a new home, so she's looking for a family who will give her time to decompress - Can be bouncy and forget her mouth manners at times but would likely excel in reward-based training classes because she is so treat-motivated - Looking for a teens-and-up home right now - May take some time to warm up to new dogs and may prefer some dogs over others; would be most comfortable with a slow introduction to new dogs (dog intro required) 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 Weight: 40 Age: 3yrs 1mths 3wks
