Arthur

Arthur is an adoptable male German Shepherd looking for a home at BARC Animal Shelter in Houston, Texas. He is fully grown and medium in size. He is listed on the shelter's euthanasia list, listed due to lack of space, and that date has now passed. Shelters often move these dates, so Arthur may still be waiting. The shelter can confirm.

He enjoys going outside, often immediately relieving himself, and has shown he can walk on a loose leash, although he frequently pulls. He's treat-motivated and has greeted staff with a wagging tail. On October 13, he was found quietly resting on his bed and was easily leashed! Arthur does sometimes struggle with other dogs nearby. He would benefit from an experienced handler, continued leash training, and careful management around other dogs.
