About Me
ADOPTION PENDING!! Arlo is the sweetest boy! A little apprehensive about getting in and out of the car but great when he is riding, he layed down and slept. He LOVES the other dogs, and is very interested in the girls but they are teaching him not to be so pushy. He takes their reprimands in stride and moves on. He is in good weight. His coat texture is more adult than puppy so he's probably around a year. Arlo seems to have had some training. He walks nicely on a leash, sort of sits and lays down and seems to know stay. He's learning the doggie door very quickly. After wandering around both inside and out Arlo is now laying down with the other dogs for a nap. As of tonight he seems to have low to moderate drive. He does like to play with the other dogs and play with the ball. He really enjoyed his playtime with the other BCs at Kelly's when we went there to get him microchipped. He's a bit of a barker when he plays though! We went to Petsmart. Arlo walked very nicely (no pulling) alongside the cart and was afraid of nothing and no one. There was an obedience class going on and there was a lot of clapping which he took in stride. He especially liked a six year old boy who wanted to pet him. He'll be fun to train and will be a great companion for some lucky person!
