They are ready to love you; are you ready to apply? Meet Arlo! After being at risk in the county shelter due to repeated returns, Arlo was given a chance in a loving foster home, where he blossomed into a confident, lovable companion. His initial adjustment period revealed that his separation anxiety was short-lived and simply needed patience and understanding. Now, he thrives on affection and shows off his sweet, good-boy side every day. Arlo is playful and always ready for fun, whether romping with other dogs or chasing toys—he'll even entertain himself with a favorite toy, which is truly heartwarming to see. He responds well to commands and redirection, showing both intelligence and willingness to learn. His affectionate nature means he'll happily curl up in your lap for cuddles after an active play session, and he enjoys walks and is up for a hiking adventure, too. This fun-loving and active guy would be a wonderful fit for an energetic couple, a family with children (ages 3 and up as per his foster), or households with playful canine companions. Arlo hasn't been cat-tested yet. To help him settle in comfortably, a short decompression period is recommended in his new home. He's sure to bring joy and companionship to his future family.
