Arthur is looking for his forever family!

Hello, my name is Arthur! I am a handsome 5-year-old Standard Poodle and Golden Retriever mix. I am a sensitive dog who needs time, kindness, and patience to build a trusting relationship with the people around me. I may not always be the first one to approach new people, but once I feel safe and have had the opportunity to get to know you, you’ll discover a completely different side of my personality. I am very attached to my humans and absolutely love being part of their daily lives. Once we have built a bond, I become an affectionate, loyal, devoted companion who is always ready for a little playtime! I form deep connections with my family and will gladly return all the love and affection I receive. It is important to know that I do not enjoy being left alone. Being separated from my humans can be difficult for me, and I will need a family who is willing to patiently help me through this learning process. I will need to gradually learn that my humans can leave and, most importantly, that they will always come back. I will need patient, consistent, and understanding owners who can help me build this confidence little by little, without rushing me. My ideal family will therefore be calm, stable, and willing to respect my pace. They will need to understand that some things will take time and be prepared to guide me through my learning with kindness and patience. In return, you will discover a loyal, loving, and affectionate dog with so much love to give. Unfortunately, I cannot live with other dogs. I cannot live with cats. Due to my sensitive nature and needs, I am looking for a family with children aged 15 and older who will be able to recognize my signals and respect when I need some extra space or quiet time. Arthur dreams of finding a family who won’t try to rush things, but will be willing to build a beautiful relationship one step at a time. If you are ready to give me the time, patience, and safe environment I need, I could become the loyal and loving companion you’ve been waiting for. If you think you could be the right family for me, please fill out an application form. We receive a very high volume of applications. They will be processed in the order they are received and based on the quality of the responses.
