Ari's Story

Hi my name is Ari! I was brought the shelter on 10-18-25 from the south when I was rescued with 5 other dogs from a high kill shelter. I was adopted back in October but I was recently returned on 4-18-26 due to a change of living situation for my owner. <br/>I am a 3 year old Malinois mix and am actually quite small at only 41 pounds. I am the perfect sized pocket shepherd. I am super friendly with people but would need a home without other dogs. I have my moments of high energy, but I definitely enjoy sleeping and cuddling on the couch. She would be more described as a moderate energy dog.

Montgomery County SPCA's Adoption Policy
At the Montgomery County SPCA, we are dedicated to finding responsible, forever homes for all the pets in our care. To that end, we have created a thorough adoption process which helps us achieve this goal. This process includes a check of veterinary history records on any pets you currently have, and a home visit. If you rent your home, we require written proof (letter or lease) from your landlord that you are allowed to have pets. We undertake this kind of thorough review to ensure that animals who have already been discarded at least once will never have to experience this again.
