Arlo
About This Dog
Arlo's ideal home
Arlo is looking for an understanding family who will enjoy continuing his training and helping him learn how to manage his excitement. Arlo loves meeting new people and may jump up, gently mouth or become over-aroused, so his new family will need to be patient and consistent and help him learn calmer ways to interact. Arlo would benefit from someone who can give him plenty of positive experiences and gradually expose him to new situations at his own pace. His arousal levels may need managing from time to time, and food can be a useful tool to help him focus and settle. Arlo has had limited experience with other dogs, so his new family will need to follow careful introductions and continue working on his dog-to-dog skills. He also has a strong prey drive, so he would be best suited to a home without small animals. Due to his bouncy and excitable nature, Arlo would be best suited to a home with secondary school aged children.
Could you be Arlo's perfect match?
Arlo is a sweet, affectionate and friendly boy who loves attention, head scratches and cuddling up on the sofa with his people. Arlo is sensitive to loud noises such as fireworks, thunder, shouting and raised voices, so a quieter home where he can feel safe and have somewhere peaceful to retreat to would suit him well. He isn't a fan of baths or water, although he does enjoy swimming in the sea and rivers! Arlo has previously been comfortable being left with access to the downstairs of his home and garden and has travelled well in the car, including journeys as far as Scotland. If you're looking for a loving, lively companion and are ready to continue helping Arlo develop his manners and confidence, he could be the fun-loving boy for you!
