Arrival Story:
I broached the subject of a dog with my partner relentlessly over a period of months, but he remained firmly against it. Until one day he returned from a day hike and made the mistake of revealing his fancy for two chocolate labs he met on the trail. I jumped on it. The next day we went to visit the last pup left in a litter, a 3 mo. old chocolate. Moments later he was wisked away with us. It was love at first sight for us. We think he's a pretty happy guy, too.

Bio:
Arlo has always snored like a grandpa, even when he was just a little pup. Arlo was bitten by another dog on just two occasions before he was 1 yr old. Both were German Shepherds, both took a chunk out of his nose. He likes to poke his nose in everything. But he still likes German Shepherds just fine.
