This is Arbie! Arbie's owner is so sad to see this sweet boy go. Due to life changes, the owner is looking for a new loving home for him. Arbie is one happy boy! He loves to meet new people, and enjoys cuddles & snuggles! He is very friendly with others. Arbie loves to go on walks! We go on several throughout the day. Once he is familiar with an area, his leash is even loose as we walk. He is house trained, neutered, chipped, up-to-date on all vaccinations, & keeps getting better with commands such as come, wait, sit and down. He also likes to fetch (some times! ) He only has one piece of furniture he is allowed on, and does a great job following that rule! Arbie does go to the dog park and has been in boarding with other dogs. Please help us find a new home for this adorable, loveable guy!
