About Argos

Argos was discovered resting in a backyard, a mysterious visitor to the neighborhood. Sadly, he wasn't reclaimed by his previous owner and is now with us. This friendly boy is estimated to be around 8 years old, and after a recent vet check, he received a clean bill of health. He arrived with an abscess on his foot, but it's healing well. It’s hard to understand why no one came searching for him. With a laid-back personality, Argos is friendly with both people and other dogs. His soulful cries in the kennel reveal how much he misses the comfort of a real home. This gentle soul deserves more than kennel life; he needs a family to love him. Please consider meeting Argos and giving him the caring home he deserves. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
