Adopt Arlo

This three-legged Australian Shepherd/Chow Chow Mix is up for adoption in Lawrenceville, Ga.

Arlo is a wonderful Aussie/Chow mix who needs a wonderful home! This sweet four year old boy came to us with a shattered leg and a couple of broken ribs.  After veterinary assessment, it was determined that Arlo's front left leg could not be repaired, and it was removed in December. Since that time, Arlo has made a wonderful recovery. He is moving around well, already going for short walks with his foster mom, who tells us that he loves to be outside and sniffing everything. As you can see in his first photo, he is a beautiful boy. He was shaved down when he had his surgery, as he was filthy and badly matted, but in no shape for a bath. His tricolor coat is already growing back, and while he looks pretty great right now, he will soon be stunnlng once again. Arlo is crate trained and housebroken. This sweet boy deserves a great home where he can get all the love and good care that he was missing before he was rescued. He will make a great pet. If you would like to meet Arlo, please let us know!

Arlo is fully vetted -- neutered, heartworm negative, and current on vaccinations and deworming. The adoption fee is $150 (cash only, please).

You can apply to adopt by submitting an application via our website at http://www.sohfga.com/. We hold adoptions at Petco in Snellville from 12-4 every Saturday and Sunday. Not every pet is present on every adoption day, so if you want to meet this one, be sure and contact us!
