ARTHUR
Shepherd
🇺🇸
Broomfield, Colorado
May 14th
male, medium, adult
DESCRIPTION
Arthur is the kind of dog who makes himself right at home in your heart — and probably leaning against your leg while he does it. This handsome 3-year-old Heeler/Shepherd mix is a total cuddle bug who loves affection and happily melts into hugs from his favorite people.
Arthur already knows “sit” and “stay,” and he's a gentle walking buddy who does nicely on leash. Whether you're heading out for a stroll or relaxing on the couch, he's happiest just being close to his humans.
He's done wonderfully around cats and generally enjoys other dogs too. Arthur is still learning that he doesn't have to worry about sharing his favorite goodies, so his foster family has been helping him practice polite manners and confidence around high-value treats and toys. He's a smart boy who responds well to guidance and consistency.
When it comes to snacks, Arthur is very enthusiastic — meals disappear at lightning speed, and he's currently working on slowing down and taking treats more gently. His eagerness just means he's always excited for the next good thing in life.
Arthur would thrive in a home that will continue building his confidence, keep up his training, and give him plenty of love and snuggles in return. If you're looking for a loyal companion with a soft heart and lots of affection to give, Arthur may just be your perfect match.
