About Archie

Say Hello to Archie, a wonderful 1 1/2-year-old pup currently searching for his very unique forever family. Archie is a special needs dog who is visually impaired; he has no sight in one eye and very limited sight in the other. However, he has successfully navigated his world since birth, and his limited vision hasn't slowed him down one bit. While he may bark if he is unsure of where his person is, a soft voice and a moment in your arms helps him orient himself. Archie is incredibly playful and loves to run in the yard once he is familiar with the perimeter. Because of this, a fenced yard is a requirement for his new home. Once he finds your lap, he is a world-class cuddler who is generous with his kisses and loves to be caressed. He currently enjoys playing with his foster dog and loves to shake his soft toys to entice others to chase him. Archie has proven he would be excellent at blind dog agility classes, as he is always up for an adventure. He would do best in a focused and determined household with children aged 10 years and older. Are you Archie's forever home? (An adoption fee of $500 is required.) If you are interested in this dog, please go to the Adopt page of our website where you will find a link to an adoption application form. https://www.chewdogrescue.org/adopt If you have previously submitted an application form to CHEW, there is no need to reapply. Just let us know you're interested in this dog. We do our best to match families and dogs so everyone is pleased and the placement is permanent. We reserve the right to refuse an applicant if the home situation is incompatible with the needs of the rescue dog. Rescue is about doing our best for the dog. We do home and reference checks. All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and are up to date with current vaccinations before being placed in their forever homes.
