Story
Roxy currently plays with an older (9yrs) female Shih Tzu 5 days a week when I help care for my  daughter’s children. She likes playing fetch and tug-a-war. She is very affectionate. She likes to be held and her tummy rubbed. When I walk her I let her walk ahead of me and explore. I have been training her not to bark at other dogs when on the leash. She finds it difficult especially if the other dog barks first. Roxy is very loving and playful. She likes going for walks. She can pull on the leash. She also does not like being closely approached on the leash by dogs or people. When I have boarded her the caretakers like her. I have to tell her to stay when I go out the front door or she may run out the door. She can whine in the car wanting the window down. She responds to treats for good behavior (not barking at other dogs). She is very protective.

Story
Meet Archie:  a Sweet, Gentle, Well-Mannered Poodle Looking for His Forever Home If you're looking for an easygoing and adorable canine companion, Archie might be exactly the dog for you! Archie is a mellow, affectionate five-year-old poodle who has handled change with grace. He came to us after his former family decided he no longer fit into their lives, but instead of shutting down, Archie has continued to show the world nothing but love, trust, and sweetness. Since arriving in his foster home, Archie has truly blossomed. He’s slimming down beautifully with healthy meals and gentle exercise, enjoys strolls around the neighborhood, and absolutely loves exploring the yard and chasing the occasional squirrel. He’s calm, polite, and incredibly well-mannered.  Archie is fully vetted, microchipped, has had a dental, and barely sheds. He’s great with children, adults, other dogs, and has an affectionate, loving presence without ever being overwhelming. He walks nicely on leash, listens beautifully, and sleeps peacefully through the night. When left alone, he simply rests, waiting patiently until his people return. His foster family says it best: “Archie is perfect. He’s smart, gentle, food-motivated, playful in the sweetest way, and so easy to live with. He loves his walks, cuddles, and cozy naps — and he’s been an absolute joy in our home.” Archie isn’t looking for anything extravagant, just a home where he’ll be loved, included, and considered part of the family. If reading about Archie tugged at your heartstrings, Archie might be the perfect pup for you. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143    Interested in meeting Archie?
