Arnie

Description

Successfully rehomed by RSPCA Tameside & Glossop Branch

Arnie is an eleven month old Shar Pei cross, who was originally purchased as a pure bred Shar Pei from a local, well known puppy farm outlet. He is quite a shy boy who, typical of his breed, can be a little aloof when he first meets new people and as a result whoever adopts him will need to meet him several times at the boarding kennels we use to gain his confidence before taking him home.

Whilst he was growing up he missed out on meeting people and visiting new places and now needs to start to learn that there is a whole wide world out there with exciting new places to investigate and enjoy.

Arnie is house-trained and has lived with children but we are now looking for an experienced Shar Pei family or one with a good understanding of his breed’s temperament and needs. An adult only home or one with older teenage children is also a priority.
