Notes from Libby and Mace's Place

Meet Archie: The Ultimate Love Bug Status: Looking for his forever family! Special Skills: Master of the "derpy head tilt," expert cuddler, and world-class kisser. If you aren’t a fan of doggy kisses, you might want to swipe left right now, because Archie is an absolute love machine. Archie didn’t have the easiest start to life, and his story almost ended way too soon just because he was scared in a loud, overwhelming shelter. But look at him now! Since moving into his foster home, this resilient boy has completely blossomed. While he can still be a little shy when meeting new people, once he knows he’s safe, his true colors shine through—and trust us, he is worth the wait.

Why You’ll Fall in Love with Archie * The Sid the Sloth Vibe: Archie has been compared to Sid from Ice Age thanks to his incredibly endearing, sweet, and wonderfully derpy mannerisms. His head tilts will melt your heart on a daily basis. * The Companion Dog: He absolutely loves his people and thrives on connection. If you are looking for a loyal shadow, Archie is your guy. * Dog Friendly: Archie loves other dogs! Having a confident canine buddy around might even help him feel brave in new situations.

Mr. Well-Behaved (The Stats) Archie isn’t just a pretty face with great personality quirks; he’s also got some stellar house manners down pat: * Fully House-Trained & Crate-Trained: He knows the house rules and handles his crate like a pro. * Leash Trained: Ready for neighborhood walks by your side. * Smart Cookie: He already knows "Sit," "Down," and "In" (perfect for heading into his crate or designated spaces).

The Ideal Home Archie would do wonderfully in a home that understands a little initial shyness just means he’s taking his time to assess the vibes. He needs a patient family willing to give him a few days to open up. Once he does, you will be rewarded with endless affection, hilarious head tilts, and a lifetime of loyalty. Ready to meet your new best friend?
