Archer can't catch a break! He's been with us since JULY of last year! He's gone into two homes and one short-term foster, but he's back at the shelter now. His first home decided they didn't have enough time for Archer, his second home found out they were expecting and decided it was too much at the time. Archer really is an awesome boy!

Archer would do best in a high-energy home with lots of activities to stimulate him! Super sweet and SUPER smart, Archer wants to steal your heart! He already knows some basic commands and wants to snuggle all the time. His recall is AMAZING. He's still young and has lots of potential to be a loyal, loving and active companion! He's also a bit of a houdini, squirreling his way through doors to visit his buddies in the shelter! He loves K9 companionship! If you're looking for endless smooches and all the doggy gratitude you could ask for, check out Archer and bring him home! We think older kids would be ok, but NO CATS, please!
