Atreus's Story
Dog Name: Atreus (Ah-tray-us)<br/>Approximate Age: 4 Years<br/>Gender: Male<br/>Dog friendly: Yes - other large dogs<br/>Cat friendly: Yes<br/>Child friendly: Yes 5+<br/>House trained: Yes<br/>Crate trained: Yes but not needed<br/>Fence needed : No<br/>Energy level: Low<br/>Temperament: Affectionate, Chill, Easy-Going<br/>Foster location: Colman, SD<br/>Adoption Fee: $350<br/><br/>About me:<br/><br/>Meet Atreus — Your New Couch Companion<br/><br/>Atreus is a big, chill, 100-pound gentle giant who believes life is best enjoyed from the comfort of the couch. With his low-energy, laid-back personality, he’s happiest lounging beside his people, soaking up pets, and quietly keeping you company. He loves affection and will politely (or not-so-politely ;) use his giant paw to let you know when it’s time for more pets. Atreus enjoys walks and gets excited to head out, but he’s overall an easygoing guy who doesn’t need constant activity.<br/><br/>Atreus does well with other large resident dogs and enjoys their company, though he’s still learning that barking isn’t the best way to initiate play. He has had a negative experience with a small dog in the past, so he can be fearful around small dogs and would do best in a home without them. He’s curious about cats and seems interested in friendship, but his current feline housemate hasn’t warmed up yet — especially when he tries to bark to invite play. With the right cat and proper introductions, this may improve over time. Because of his size and gentle-but-clumsy nature, Atreus prefers to keep his space from small children (4 and under) and would thrive in a calmer home environment.<br/><br/>- Crate trained<br/>- Does great free-roaming in the house<br/>- Low energy, relaxed temperament<br/>- Needs a confident owner comfortable handling a large dog<br/><br/>Atreus is looking for a home that understands that big dogs can be big softies, and one that will appreciate his calm presence, affectionate nature, and love of a good couch nap. If you’re searching for a loyal, mellow companion with a heart as big as his paws, Atreus might be your perfect match. <br/><br/>*AHCR cannot guarantee any breed/possible breed of the dogs in our care or the size they will be full grown. All of our animals are fixed, microchipped, started on age appropriate vaccines, dewormed, and on a flea/tick and heart worm preventative prior to adoption.
