Archie has found a home! Have a great life sweetie!
Say hello to Archie! This gorgeous boy is a beagle who is 9 years old. He is in the care of Starfish Dog Rescue after his owners felt they were unable to care for him due to work commitments and having young children in the house. He is a terrifc boy with a lovely nature. He adapted to his foster home very quickly despite being nervous at first. But after a long walk with his foster dad, he decided he loved him very much and the photo above is him on his first day there, watching his foster dad wash his car. He just wants to be with you!
Archie is sharing his foster home with 4 other dogs, teenagers and visiting toddlers. He has a wonderful nature with people and other dogs. He is sweet and easy to live with. He spent some time on the beach recently and here are a couple of videos of him running about and enjoying himself.
Archie was a good boy on the beach, he has fantastic recall and enjoyed the ride there and back. He spent they day running around and walking nicely at the seaside town.
At home, Archie spends his nights sleeping downstairs with the other dogs in the kitchen. In the evenings, he loves nothing better than to snuggle up next to you on the sofa, at that time preferring people to other dogs. During the day, however, he loves being part of the pack across the moors.
Archie is a dream boy but he is sensitive and needs a set routine. He can get worried in the car, especially if he ends up at a new place, but soon settles down. He loves his food and can be a bit of a pain when you are in the kitchen preparing a meal. When the grandchildren visit, he does have a tendency to try to take their food. This has been resolved by keeping him in a crate so he can just watch but not interfere. He also tries to raid the bins, but with training and a lockable bin, this will improve.
Archie can also be worried about being left alone and will cry at first and jump on the door. Again, he settles down after a short time.
Archie would do best with a retired couple of person who are still somewhat active since he loves running off-lead at least once a day. He can live with other dogs or be an only dog.
Archie is a lovely boy with a few anxiety issues but he has so much going for him. He is a sweet, sensitive and loyal boy who really loves being with you. He will make a wondeful companion to some lucky family!
