Meet Arie

Meet the Uber fluffy and handsome Arie!

This SMALL BREED champagne and cream fluffy terrier mix puppy is approximately 11 weeks old and currently weighs 6 pounds, but will weigh around 15 lbs. as an adult. Arie entered our rescue when we rescued his mom very close to having puppies and gave her a safe space to give birth and raise her SIX babies. Arie’s mom did an amazing job raising her babies and has been adopted and now it is her babies turn!

Arie is a typical small breed puppy - Sassy, Silly, and SPUNKY. He can usually be found “investigating” all the things and reporting his findings back to his foster mom and siblings. He is joyful and sassy and perfect for someone who likes to be kept on their toes and loves to laugh at puppy antics. When he is done playing, he loves to tuck himself into a big fluffy dog bed and blanket to take a long nap. He IS working hard on house training in his foster home, but like all small breed puppies, he has a small bladder and currently is only able to go without breaks for 3-4 hours during the day and 5 overnight. His ideal home will have someone ready to continue a consistent routine/structure with house training and learning manners. Puppy training is a time consuming process that requires patience, and his perfect home will understand that he needs consistency, structure, and training and be able to put that time in while he is young.

Arie is a dog who will need regular grooming due to his longer hair length. He will need frequent brushing, baths, and haircuts which adds an additional task and cost to his lifelong care.

Arie’s current favorites include:
? Playing with toys
? Wresting/Running with her littermates
? Exploring outside/“stealing” leaves and sticks
? Puppy Treats
? Hugs and Snuggles
? Belly Rubs
?Naps

Arie’s ideal forever home will have another playful dog or dogs and maybe even some dog savvy/older kids of his very own! He is good with other small dogs and good with cats and children. Arie will not be adopted to a home without another accepting dog. Arie’s perfect home would have older children only who can interact with his small stature safely. With continued puppy training, this handsome dude is going to make a great life-long companion. ??

Arie deserves the best forever home and like always we are not first come first serve- we will want a mutual adoption decision from both the potential adopter and Arie himself. We are always looking for the very best fit for both you AND the dog.

All dogs are spayed/neutered, current on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped, dewormed, and current on flea/tick/heartworm prevention. The adoption fee is $200.
