About Arthur

Meet Arthur! He’s a young male Shepherd mix, estimated to be between 1 to 2 years old, and set to be a large dog. His gentle nature is shining through as he gains confidence in foster care. Arthur, along with his sister, was rescued from the streets, where they were left starving and in need of care. In his foster home, he’s blossomed into a friendly companion. He walks nicely on a leash and is great with both dogs and kids. At first, Arthur can be shy and prefers slow introductions to feel comfortable in new settings. He loves to play with toys and show affection in his unique ways. He’s crate trained and has learned to signal when he needs to go outside, making him a great housemate. Arthur is smart, eager to please, and motivated by treats, which means training will be a rewarding experience. Currently fostered in Palmdale, Arthur is available for adoption anywhere in the USA. Give him the home he has been waiting for. Apply today!
