WEIGHT: ~54lbs.
Meet Arrow– Arrow came to us from a partner shelter where he was picked up as a stray so it will be up to his new adoptive family to come up with an origin story for him.
Arrow is a very sweet guy, but he doesn’t seem to have much experience doing ‘dog things’.
He is sensitive to sudden movements and loud noises, and it is clear that a lot of what he is experiencing here at the shelter and out in the world is very new to him.
That being said, Arrow has been super brave since coming to us and is already gaining confidence and warming up to his new human friends.
Arrow has met other dogs here, and to be honest, he’s got mixed feelings about it.
Shelter staff is open to a home with another dog, providing the two prove to be truly a good match after intentional introduction and with a good management plan in place; but a home without other dogs may be best for him at this point in his life.
Arrow has also been diagnosed with hip dysplasia on his left side.
Because he is still young, there have been no arthritic changes thus far, but adopters should be prepared to consult a veterinarian upon adoption in regard to preserving his joint health both now and in the future.
Think you might be this Dobey-boy’s forever person?
