Arlo

Hi! My name is Arlo & me and my mom and my four other siblings were abandoned in a trailer park after our owners moved and left us behind. Some of the neighbors took pity on us and fed us occasionally; then one of them finally called a small local rescue to see if they could help us. A volunteer with that rescue contacted BCAA and our luck changed as they said they would help us each find our own forever home where we wouldn't need to worry about food, shelter or knowing what it meant to be safe ... yeah!!! Us pups are around 6mos old and I'm the second biggest of all of us at just under 18lbs; our mom is around 3yrs old and weighs around 34lbs; and there is no idea who our dad(s) is, so just guessing using our current age and weight it is anticipated that we will be medium sized dogs when we get full grown. None of us look like our mom (she's the pretty red head whose picture is included at the end of my pics who looks kind of like a Vizla mix) and I am all black except a small white star on my chest and with the super soft hair of a spaniel; I also have the cutest underbite that my foster mom says makes me look distinguished. When we first arrived at our foster home, we were all pretty scared and skittish; however, everyone has been real nice to us and that combined with some good food and treats has allowed us to start coming out of our shell. We are learning lots of different things that we have never experienced before, like what a leash is about, that we are going to get let out on a schedule to take care of our business, and that we are going to be fed every day. This last one is really hard since we all had to scrounge for whatever food we got so we tend to scarf our food down and look for more. We have gotten along well with each other as well as with the other foster dogs we have met; so far, we haven't paid too much attention to the cats. Bottom line, we are typical pups who will need continued training and socialization to become the great adult dogs we are on our way to becoming. BCAA also got us all caught up on our vetting and we have all been recently fixed so nothing for you to worry about.
