Archie is a strong, energetic dog who thrives with an active family ready to keep both his body and mind engaged. He's deeply affectionate—a huge fan of snuggling—and his goofy personality makes him as funny as he is lovable. Archie’s intelligence stands out; he catches on quickly and loves to be challenged with new training or activities. His coat is exceptionally soft, making cuddle time even better. At around 65 pounds, Archie is almost at his full adult weight. He’s adjusting to shelter life but has always enjoyed the company of his female Malinois friend, Veronica. While Archie can get overwhelmed with too many dogs around, he does get along with other respectful dogs. Families with middle school kids or older will be best for him. Applicants should have experience with German Shepherds or Malinois—this is a must. Adoptions are limited to the Phoenix metro area. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
