Archie's Story
Archie is a 4 1/2 year old, brindle, male Scottish Terrier. He came into our rescue group a few months ago after his father died and elderly mother could not take care of him. He had never been away from his home before and was terrified to come into our foster home. He exhibited fearful aggressive behavior. After only a few days, as he started acclimating to his new location and foster mom, and he was like a different dog. He’s been learning a lot in his new home, many things he was never taught in his original home, and unlearning and relearning positive behaviors. We’re very proud of his fast progress. He’s quite smart! <br/>He’s recently been neutered and is vaccinated. He’s currently being treated for an ear infection and working with a trainer as well. After that, he will be ready for adoption. Because he’s a large Scottie, at over 30 pounds, and given his history, we think he’d do well in an adult home with or without other dogs. A quieter environment with a fenced yard, but where he can also take leash strolls. A Scottie experienced, patient and forgiving parent(s) would be his best fit. He’s young, healthy and active, playful and affectionate once he trusts you, so he’s got lots of good attributes. <br/>As with many Scotties, Archie does have some seasonal allergies that have been easily controlled by a periodic Cytopoint shot. <br/>For further information on Archie, please contact Erica Cerny at ecerny@optonline.net or 973-361-6790
