Archibald

Archie is the sweetest boy in the world and I am very sad to have to rehome him. He is 4 years old.

Archie is very loving and silly with a laid back goofy personality. He has lived with other cats and dogs his whole life and has regularly socialized and loves being around any person or animal that wants to say hello to him. He’s happy to go on walks or hikes, or to sleep all day or cuddle.

I got him 4 years ago as a puppy from a farm in Oregon and he’s traveled with me to multiple states. He is the best boy for long car rides and any outdoor activities. He does not have experience as a LGD but he has been to many farms and has been around livestock.

I’m really hoping for a loving home with a yard and another dog so he can have fun playing with a new brother or sister. He’s the best dog I could ask for and I hope he makes you just as happy
