About this Dog
ARTHUR NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Arthur Best Guess for Breed: Shepherd and lab mix Best Guess for Age: 1.5 years as of April 2025 SEX: Male Approximate Weight: 55 lbs Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen him with kids or cats, but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters. Currently Living at: Texas shelter - needs a human to make an offer to get up to the DC area! Arthur is Looking For: His forever family! As young puppies, he and his sister Charlene, along with their mama Coopa, landed in a shelter so far south in Texas, it's only 30 miles from the Mexican border - and the shelter routinely has 1200+ animals in its care. Despite having such an enormous number to care for, shelter staff do an amazing job with all their dogs and Arthur is a great, loving dog and wonderful in playgroup with other dogs - he has been so well socialized with other dogs! Unfortunately, there is a massively skewed ratio of available homes to dogs in the area - so his only hope of getting a home is out of state. He is not bonded with Charlene and they will go to separate homes. Arthur is truly such a big ol' sweetie who loves life and wants nothing more than to know who his humans are, where he belongs. He has all that awesome young-dog energy and is ready to accompany his humans on all those adventures - sniffy walks around the neighborhood, romps in parks, and trips to the beach - the mountains - Starbucks for pup cups - he's up for it all. Making new pup and people pals along the way would be terrific too. He's gonna be an amazing companion. What do you say? Will he be yours? What My Foster Says About Me: We will update this if he gets a foster and is able to come to the DC area. Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training. TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and spay/neuter. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online at bit.ly/adoptaluckydog . Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament.

Adopt Arthur and Receive Arthur's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Arthur's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Arthur's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Arthur, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Arthur's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Arthur was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Arthur’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Arthur’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Arthur’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
