ARKO is a 3 year old black male with natural ears. Arko came to rescue when his owners could no longer keep him. Arko is one tall fellow, and when he fills out he will be quite a sight.  He also has one of the softest, shiniest coats we have ever seen.  When Arko first came in he was thin.  On top of this, he lost more weight because he would not eat.  He mourned the loss of his family tremendously.  During his second week in rescue Arko bloated. It was caught early and
he successfully made it through surgery with only a bruised spleen. Since his surgery Arko has become a different dog completely. He has boundless amounts of energy, is eating anything that is not nailed down, and we have had a hard time keeping him rested and quiet. We are still waiting for the green light from the vet in order for playtime with the other dogs. We do know that Arko loves the ladies, gets a little irritated at fast moving fluffy small dogs and cats are unknown at this time. Arko knows the commands Sit, Down, Go to Your Bed, Leave it and is working hard on Stay.  He loves long walks and is practicing walking on a gentle leader.  He is houstrained and crate trained.  Arko does seem to have a little stranger anxiety and we are also working on that. He is putting on some desperately needed weight nicely and should be looking great in no time at all. Arko came into rescue in August of 2005.
