Arthur's Story

Meet Arthur!<br/><br/>My name is Arthur and I am a young, good-natured, and affectionate mixed-breed dog that weighs 65# and I would love to make your acquaintance. They say I am very popular with the ladies, but buddies are cool too. I like being outside on sunny days, although I consider myself an indoor dog. I really just prefer to be where my people are. I am potty-trained and I sleep on my own bed next to my stepsister. I’ve recently been neutered and I have had my first set of shots and something called a microchip. I am happy all of the time and I still feel like a puppy a lot of days. I have a lot of energy that I need to manage, but once I get a little tired out, I can settle down and relax like everybody else. As I get older, it will start to get easier for me.<br/><br/>To help me manage it now, I like to be taken on long walks that give me plenty of time to smell the flowers. A hike is even better! My leash skills are pretty good, but I’m young and I am still working on them. I still get distracted a little...bit...<br/><br/>...was that a Squirrel?!!<br/><br/>I am very athletic and I bet I can keep up with any human! I like to run and jump, and I have a very graceful trot where I just glide along the ground. It just comes naturally, I guess. I like playing in the water when the hose comes out, and I can jump very high to try to bite the stream and then chase it all over. My stepsister just watches, but I think it’s great fun! I like shaking my stuffed animal toys (but not too hard my foster says) and playing tug-of-war with old towels.<br/><br/>I wish the whole world could be my playground!<br/><br/>I have been staying with my foster family for about a month now and we have been getting along great! They have a nice big yard for me to run in, my stepsister gives me somebody to annoy, and they are super nice to me. They give me food!<br/><br/>I just think I’m ready to find my forever home now. Once I do, I will want to stay with my people always. I think I would like it if I wasn’t the only dog. I don’t really like being by myself too much and always prefer company. When I find that, I will be the happiest dog in the world!<br/><br/>I’ve been getting a lot of attention in my current home, some structure, and a familiarity to their schedule. I am very food motivated and it always seems like I’m hungry. My stepfamily has been teaching me a lot. Everybody tells me that I’m super smart!<br/><br/>Arthur is vaccinated, neutered and chipped. His adoption fee is $450<br/><br/>We cover the medical to prepare the pet for adoption and the adopt donations go directly to cover those costs and range from $295-$495. Thank you for stepping up to save a life!<br/><br/>To expedite to meet with this dog, please go to our site at www.savinggreatanimals.org and fill out an application. We look at the first applications to arrive, so we hope to hear from you soon!

Saving Great Animals WA's Adoption Policy
If you are interested in adopting one of our available dogs, you can visit our website savinggreatanimals.org and submit an application. We will then connect you with the dog's foster family for a meet and greet.  Saving Great Animals offers a two week trial adoptions for all dogs, to make sure they are indeed a good match for you. During the trial adoption we are here to support you with advice and training.  Saving Great Animals is a match-making service and not a shelter. We do not have a public facility for you to visit as all of our animals are placed in foster homes. This is a better environment for the animal and also allows us to learn more about their behaviors before they are adopted.  If you are interested in meeting an adoptable pet, please submit an application for that animal via our website and we will then connect you with the foster family for a meet and greet.
