About Arlo
Arlo may be small, but he packs a lot of personality as a Jack Russell Terrier. This fun-loving and intelligent boy seeks a true connection with his person, whether it’s enjoying walks, playing fetch, or just relaxing together. He walks well on a leash and stays close by your side, eager to please and always ready for belly rubs. Arlo has a playful side that shines through when he's chasing toys or entertaining himself. While he possesses that typical terrier energy, he can also be calm and settles well when his needs are met. Having been returned twice, we've learned what he truly needs to thrive. One return involved barking in his kennel and the other was linked to mismatched energy in the home. Arlo flourishes with clear, calm, and confident guidance. He can get destructive if bored or left in a kennel for too long, so an active home that provides structure and engagement is essential. He does best with dogs his size or larger, and may not be suited for homes with small animals due to his prey drive. Arlo has immense potential as a lovable companion. With the right person—someone who is patient, consistent, and confident—he will continue to become an incredible, loyal friend. His adoption fee is fully sponsored and covers his neuter, microchip, heartworm testing, age-appropriate vaccinations, and preventatives. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
