Couldn't sleep either? Hi. Archie here.
I just want to rest my head in your hands and show you every trick I know—sit, down, shake—because making you proud feels like the best reward there is.
My notes say I'm a world-class cuddler, and I'd like that on the record.
I'm on the bigger side — which, if you ask me, is just more of me to hug.
I do come with a few special needs, but please don't let that scare you off — I just need a patient friend, and I pay it back tenfold.
Born and (almost) raised right here in Oakland.
Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.
If all goes well, I could be curled up with my new pack by Halloween — maybe yours, whether you adopt me or just help me get noticed.
Thanks for stopping by and giving me a moment — it honestly made my whole day. — Archie

About Archie
4 years old and 61 pounds, handsome Archie is affectionate to his core. He'll rest his head right in your hands and settle into pets for as long as you'll give them. He's food motivated, takes treats with a soft mouth, and picks up new skills fast. Sit, down, shake, touch, off, leave it, he knows them all and loves showing off. Archie is an easy roommate: house trained, comfortable settling down on his own for a few hours, and not a big barker. New places take him a minute to warm up to, so he does best with adopters who go slow, use plenty of encouragement, and keep things calm while he settles in. Archie would love a person who's up for a walk or a short hike and can keep training fun with rewards along the way. He's doing great in his foster home with a small resident dog. He'd thrive as the only pet or paired with a calm, well matched dog friend, and does best without feline roommates. His foster says it best: out of 14 dogs she's fostered, Archie is her favorite!
