✨ Archie is Looking for His Perfect Home ✨
I’m currently fostering Archie and helping his wonderful owners find the right forever home for him. This decision was made out of love, and we’re being extremely selective about where he goes because he truly is such a special boy. ❤️
Archie is a 10 month old Rough Collie who recently completed a 2 week puppy course with me focused on confidence building, impulse control, and foundational obedience. He knows basic commands and has done very well in training!
He can be a little timid when first meeting new people, but once he opens up, he becomes your absolute best friend and wants to be involved in everything you do. He’s a very sweet, sensitive boy that thrives with guidance and structure.
A few things about Archie:
• Amazing with kids
• Has done well with my cat while being monitored
• Previous owners state he may chase cats, so dog savvy cat homes only
• Has been around many different dogs successfully
• Can play rough at times (pretty typical collie behavior)
• Previous owners report some resource guarding around food with other dogs, so his future home must be comfortable crating/separating during feeding times for safety and management
While I personally haven’t seen major issues with him, we want his future home fully aware and prepared so he can continue to succeed.
It is strongly recommended that Archie’s new family use an e-collar for continued training and communication, as he responds very well to structure and clear guidance.
To help set him up for success, I’ll also be including:
✔️ 2 private lessons with his new family
✔️ Lifetime support
What “lifetime support” means:
If his new owners ever have questions, need guidance, run into training issues, need help troubleshooting behaviors, or just want advice throughout Archie’s life, I’ll always be available to help support them.
Important requirements:
• STRICT no breeding contract
• STRICT no rehoming contract, if things ever do not work out, Archie MUST come back to me or his previous owners
• New owners must be comfortable keeping his previous owners updated on how he’s doing
This boy deserves an amazing home that understands timid/sensitive dogs and is willing to continue building his confidence. He truly has so much potential and so much love to give. ❤️
Please message me if you think you may be the right fit for Archie. Check out my story highlights to see some of his training!
