About Archie
Meet Archie, he’s a lovable goofball who loves people and other dogs alike .
He’s only just 12months old and is still not really aware of his size or strength. He will need a strong and active new owner to continue his training and add to his many manners he has already learnt in the short time he's been in foster care.
It's easy to forget Archie is still essentially a puppy because of his size, so he really needs a new owner who has experience with large dogs.
Archie is great indoors and knows how to sit and also stay on his matt when asked.
He is crate trained and will happily sleep in his crate at night, but if crates aren't your preferred night time method, he will happily sneek onto your bed and snuggle you all night.
Archie is not great around cats or small animals as he tends to want to play a little too rough with them and would be better suited to a home with another medium-large dog who can show him the ropes.
He does like to attach himself to his human and travels very well in the car, so he would also be well suited to someone who is looking for a wing-man to take everywhere with them.
If you are a strong, training focussed individual, who is looking for a love bug/goofball then please email us for an adoption form and set up a meet n greet with this gorgeous boy.
