This handsome Lad is Arko, He was very nervous when he first came into the home and was hesitant on trusting people, due to this potential adopters would need to commit to numerous meet and greets, he came out of his shell quickly and is now the big confident goofball we have come to love, he can still be quite jumpy when it comes to loud noises or unfamiliar environments so would need ongoing socialisation in his new home, Arko can be mouthy when he gets overexcited due to him being young puppy like dog so would need ongoing training and would even benefit from puppy classes to start again with his basics to put boundaries in place.

Arko’s favourite thing to do is play fetch and have cuddles in our compounds, despite his size he is a big cuddly lap dog who loves nothing more than to sit on your knee and roll onto his back for belly scratches.

Arko has interacted well with other dogs whist in our care but can be boisterous when playing so due to this we feel he would be best suited to being the only dog in the house so he can have the 1-1 time he needs to develop his own training and to come out of his shell in the home.

Previous breed knowledge would be ideal for Arko as he is a big lad and can be strong on his lead.

As Arko came into the home as a stray we have no previous history on him so would prefer any children in the home to be 16+ years.

Applications that are successful will be provided with further information on each dog to the best of the charity’s knowledge.
