Simon's Story
- TOTAL cuddle bug who adores doing everything with his humans and has zero personal space <br/><br/>- Loves chew toys and car rides <br/><br/>- May be vocal around strangers, but warms up quickly to visitors <br/><br/>- Knows sit, no, and good boy, and does fantastic on a leash; his foster family said he's also well-behaved in the house<br/><br/>- Has been fully potty trained in his foster home; just remember that any dog may need time to get used to a new routine<br/><br/>- Can be vocal when left alone, so he may do best in a free-standing home vs. an apartment or other attached-living situation <br/><br/>- Has done well with kids in his foster home and adores getting all the pets, but may benefit from a more mature home where all family members are big enough to be OK with the fact that he sometimes doesn't understand personal space<br/><br/>- Prefers slow introductions to other dogs, but once he feels comfortable he loves rowdy play; would greatly benefit from a confident dog friend in his new home who can show him the ropes <br/><br/>- Has been friendly toward the cats in his foster home and likes to sniff them <br/><br/>- Overall a great family dog who will bring lots of joy to his people!<br/><br/>The ARL's shelter software requires that we choose a primary breed for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most dogs we are only guessing at primary breed. We get to know each dog as an individual and do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not breed label.
