Arthur
(Needs a Foster)

Dogs – Let's meet!
Cats – Passed his cat test
Kids – Yes, 14+
Arthur came to us in tough shape after someone found him running through traffic. He was skinny, covered in fleas, and trying so hard to keep going. That says a lot about who he is. A kind stranger stepped in, and now Arthur is safe and finally getting the care he's needed for a long time.
As we've gotten to know him, it's been easy to see what a sweet dog he is. Arthur loves toys and enjoys quiet walks where he can take in the world at his own pace. He's a strong boy, but when things feel calm, he settles right in and walks nicely beside you. He's the kind of dog who leans in for gentle attention like he's been waiting for someone to notice him.
Arthur has spent time hanging out in the office with staff, and he's been great company. He's housebroken and lets you know when he needs to go out. He's also done well relaxing loose in the room without getting into trouble, though he's happy to curl up in a crate for a good nap. Most of the time, Arthur is a laid-back, loving guy who just wants to be near his people. Every now and then, he'll get a burst of zoomies when he's excited to head outside or when a really good toy appears.
Arthur has been through a lot, but you wouldn't know it from how much he enjoys affection and the simple things in life. He's ready for the part of his story where he finally gets to be someone's dog.

Not Quite Ready To Adopt?
You can make an immeasurable impact by opening your home and your heart to an animal in need. Fostering is a great opportunity to introduce a pet into your home without making a lifelong commitment. Many of our foster humans end up adopting their fostered animals, but many also choose to just provide the temporary shelter and love our animals need to get through a trying time.
