ARF Adoption Stars

Othello and Nemo are looking for loving homes.

Othello

Othello is a gentle, social, fluffy Shih Tzu mix. He is curious and outgoing in a low-key kind of way. Othello will blossom with a relaxed home that can meet his exercise and mental health needs. A Basic Manners training class may be a good environment for Othello to bond with his new adopter while getting a good physical and mental "workout."   

The adoption fee for adult dogs is $225 and includes 60 percent off one 7-week dog training session.
