HOW TO ADOPT: This dog is available for adoption by appointment. To schedule a time to meet this dog, please email meetme@arl-iowa.org.---- A cuddle bug once he has had time to warm up - Will do anything for food and treats - it's the fastest way to make friends with him - Loves scratching his back on grass and carpet and rolls over and wiggles around like a cutie - Can curl into the most perfect circle just like a cat - Knows sit and likes treats - Enjoys walks and chewing on antlers- Sometimes when he's sleeping he won't want to actually wake up and get up, but you can tell he's listening from the thump of his tail wagging - Has had no potty accidents in his foster home; just remember that any dog may need time to get used to a new routine- Not a fan of loud noises or thunderstorms - Can be nervous outside his home, particularly with energetic or fast-moving children or strangers; looking for a home with more mature family members who can help him build confidence and learn to socialize with people outside his circle - Enjoys like-minded dog friends and did great with the dog in his foster home; also participated in dog play groups here at the shelter and can adapt to several different play styles; seems to warm up best when there's another dog present to take cues from, and we think he'll do best if he has a dog friend in his new homeThe ARL's shelter software requires that we choose a primary breed for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most dogs we are only guessing at primary breed. We get to know each dog as an individual and do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not breed label. Primary Color: Black Weight: 43 Age: 3yrs 2mths 3wks
