Happy Friday! We have an update on GUINNESS, a love bug who’s been waiting for seven months for someone to love him back.

He recently spent a week with Arrow Fund fosters who have a large dog (and can’t permanently add another animal in their current environment), and we are happy to share what they noted about having Guinness snuggle with them in their home:

“He's just a big, lovable guy. My wife loves him, and I think anyone who adopts him will fall in love with him very easily,” his foster wrote. “He's a lot of dog, but he's nothing but love and affection. Not a mean bone in his body.”

Guinness is crate trained for sleeping at night, and wakes in the morning with energy, but calms down quickly, they said. He especially likes a toy to play with when he wakes.

“He's a big boy, so when he wants ‘lovins’ you definitely know about it, lol.” He also has an adorable “couch flop” move that made his fosters laugh.

Need a big hugger who can’t wait to spend time with you every day? Guinness has been with The Arrow Fund since January when he was found with deep lacerations caused by a snare-type trap. He is a young, Merle-coated dog with a playful, happy disposition whose body has completely healed, but still needs a real home to lay his head at night.

Please give this big fur ball a chance to prove how much love he has to give.

How much does he weigh,? House broken? Age?

I would love to know what breed he is. He’s so dang cute!!! Whoever adopts him is going to have a snuggle buddy for life!

He is so good looking, Healy and happy! Someone will be so lucky to have him .

JETHRO CONTINUES HIS SEARCH FOR HIS FOREVER HOME ! Jethro entered The Arrow Fund family back in December after being found emaciated with a severe upper respiratory infection and a painful eye infection. His eye ended up needing to be removed but he is now healed. Nothing he has been thru has slowed the spunky approximately one year old down and he is now on the hunt for the perfect home. He does have one request. There was a second kitten that entered the fosters home from the local shelter on the same day as Jethro by the name of McGee. His picture is in the comments. These two are best friends and the perfect home is one that is ready for two if possible. If not, we understand. please click on the link to add Jethro to your family.

Awww, bless their hearts. If I didn't have 3 already and only suppose to have 2 where I live or I would definitely take them.

He looks like our Mr. Blue. He had his eye removed too. Hope he finds a home soon.
