Arlo is his name and his gentle eyes match his heart perfectly! Arlo is estimated to be 1 year old, weighs 48 lbs, and may be a husky/shepherd mix. He's a "slow bloom, big reward" kind of dog who can be shy when meeting new people, but with a little time and patience, he becomes the sweetest, most devoted boy. He thrives when he knows where his people are and truly enjoys being close to them, often becoming a shadow. He loves his foster family, including three kids (ages 4-12) and his small dog buddy, participating in daily routines from morning walks to evening cuddles.
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. Walks in busy or unfamiliar places can feel like a lot for him right now. He would do best with a smaller, friendly dog, or a calm, easygoing larger dog, with a thoughtful introduction and decompression time. He has also done well with slow and proper introductions with a cat.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned in the description.
Training & Support
Arlo is house and crate trained and knows the rhythm of home life. He can be shy when meeting new people and may hang back at first, but he is a smart, trainable boy who just needs time, consistency, and someone willing to show him the world can be a safe and gentle place. He thrives with a canine buddy.
