My story

Hi there! My name is Sir Archibald Wallace III - or - Archie. I am about 2 years old and I am a lovebug. I enjoy hot dogs, my big stuffed frog squeaky toy and snuggling on the couch. I am a smart boy who loves to learn new things and get rewarded for it - that's where the yummy hot dogs come in. My foster mom says I am the easiest dog she's ever given a bath to. I like the warm water and guess what ... hot dog treats come along with the experience, making it even better. I am doing great meeting other dogs, new human friends and even kids. I am a little shy around strangers, but as long as someone is willing to take it slow with me, I will be your best friend. I can't wait to enjoy long walks, many rounds of fetch and many squeaky toys with my new family. I am housetrained and ready to meet the love of my life. All I need now is you. Apply today! Adoption fee: $80. Adopt a pair: $120. Fee includes testing, deworming, vaccinations, spay/neuter, 30 days of free pet insurance, one session with a certified behavior trainer and microchip.

Shop our Amazon Wish List to gift us supplies we need and have them shipped directly to us.. NOTE ABOUT BREED LABELING: Visual breed identification of dogs is unreliable and usually inaccurate. So, for most of our adoptable pups, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog or puppy as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label. Adoption Process: Complete the application at www.pawsforliferescue.org. We then arrange a location, date and time for you to meet some pets. If the meeting goes well and everyone is happy, you begin the mandatory, minimum two-week adjustment period with the pet as part of your family. You will pay the non-refundable adoption fee at the start of the two-week adjustment period. This pending period allows your new dog or cat time to adjust to their new home, new people, new routine, etc., and for you to decide if it's a match and the right pet for you. At the end of two weeks (some people extend the adjustment time as needed and that's fine too), if everyone is happy, then we finalize the adoption. Feel free to email if you have any questions.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Archie, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
