Meet the fabulous Arlo, folks! This charming almost 2-year-old Mini Australian Shepherd is a bundle of joy, and let me tell you, he's ready to leap right into your heart! 🐾💖 Arlo is that delightful companion who loves to lay right beside you whether you’re whipping up a delicious dinner, soaking up the sun, or simply unwinding after a long day. He’s got a passion for scratches that will melt your heart and a BIG personality to match those adorable puppy eyes! 😍 Now, let's get to the fun part—this pup is a gentle soul who gets along wonderfully with other doggos and would thrive in a home with older, calmer children. However, be aware, he can be a bit shy around strangers and might bark to let you know he’s on alert! Protecting his loved ones is part of his charm. 🦸‍♂️ Crate training? Oh boy! Arlo is not a fan! He’ll give you those soulful puppy eyes to convince you that the crate is a terrible place; but fear not, he settles down after a few minutes. Plus, he’s been a superstar in his foster home, never having pottied in his crate. 🌟 This medium-energy fluffball is just looking for a family that can give him a little time—and let’s face it, who wouldn’t want to shower this sweet boy with love? Arlo's little excitement dance is a sight to see! When his foster mom comes home, he can leap a whopping three feet in the air! Can you imagine the joy that would bring? 🤩 He does have a soft spot for a sibling or two to play with, but let’s be real: he wants you as his number one! So, if you are patient, love a good cuddler, and can provide a calm environment, Arlo could be the perfect match for you! Located in Nashville, TN, Arlo is neutered and making great strides in his house training, but he’ll need a little more practice. He prefers a harness for leash walks and would thrive in a home with a fence—though it’s not a dealbreaker. 🎉 Let’s not forget—this sweet soul just needs a little love to show you his true colors. So, if you’re ready to take a chance on this loving furball, make sure to apply through the Buddy App! Arlo is here waiting for you! 🥳
