Archie is a 4½-year-old brindle Scottish Terrier who lost his family and landed in rescue after a tough life change. When he first arrived, he was anxious and fearful, but within days he started acclimating and showed real progress, surprising everyone with how quickly he adapted. Archie’s quite smart and has been working hard with his foster mom to pick up new habits and unlearn some old ones, making steady strides every week. He’s recently neutered, up to date on vaccines, and is finishing up treatment for an ear infection. Archie weighs over 30 pounds, so he’s a large Scottie. He would fit best in an adult home, ideally with someone patient and familiar with Scotties. Archie does well with other dogs, but prefers a calm environment—a quieter home with a fenced yard and peaceful walks. Once he trusts you, he’s playful, affectionate, and up for adventure. He does have mild seasonal allergies, but they’ve been easy to manage with periodic injections. Archie brings a lot of heart and energy and just needs the right match to thrive.
