Arlo is his name and his gentle eyes match his heart perfectly! Arlo is a handsome boy, estimated to be 1 year old and weighing 48 lbs. He may be a husky/shepherd mix, but he is a rescue, so we cannot guarantee his breed. Arlo's foster describes him as a "slow bloom, big reward" kind of dog. He can be shy when meeting new people and may hang back at first, taking everything in from a safe distance. With a little time, patience, and a steady routine, he blossoms into the sweetest, most devoted boy who just wants to be close to you. Arlo thrives when he knows where his people are and enjoys his daily routine of breakfast, a short walk, backyard zoomies, and playtime.
Ideal Home
Arlo would feel most comfortable in a home with a yard where he can settle in and build confidence at his own pace. He would do best with a smaller, friendly dog or a calm, easygoing larger dog. He has also done well with cats after slow and proper introductions. Walks in busy or unfamiliar places can feel like a lot for him right now.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned.
Training & Support
Arlo is house and crate trained and knows the rhythm of home life. He is a smart, trainable boy who needs time, consistency, and someone willing to show him the world can be a safe and gentle place.
