About Archie

Archie is about to turn 4 in August, making him a charismatic Leo—expect a dog that shines in any group. Archie came to the rescue as a stray from Texas and, with his compact Corgi-sized frame, short legs, and long body, he’s likely got some Dachshund ancestry in the mix. He’s the unofficial welcome committee for all newcomers, testing beautifully with every dog he meets.

Archie is house trained and crate trained, doesn’t act up, and has a calm, steady presence. He gets along well with other dogs, cats, and children, making him an easy fit in most homes. Archie’s calm nature and knack for affection have made him a favorite at the rescue. If you’re ready for a loyal, low-to-the-ground companion, Archie is your guy. Ready to fall in love?
