Argo is a gentle, affectionate australian shepherd mix with a calm, easygoing personality and the softest, most soulful eyes. At 70+ pounds, he’s a large boy with a big heart and a wonderfully mellow temperament. He loves everyone he meets and is fantastic with other dogs—so much so that the Arkansas shelter used him as their “tester dog” because of his steady, friendly nature.
He’s neutered, fully potty trained, and crate trained—as long as it’s a wire crate. (He’s a bit of a Houdini with plastic ones!) When he’s tired, he’ll put himself to bed and snooze peacefully. Argo loves playing fetch, chasing his foster brother around the yard, and enjoying toys and walks. He’s gentle, intelligent, eager to please, and knows several commands including sit, come, shake, and kennel.
Argo would love with a fenced yard, where he can safely enjoy outdoor playtime. He’s slightly active with a moderate energy level—happy to romp and play, but also content to relax and be a lap‑leaning companion. He takes treats very gently and is a quiet dog who rarely barks.
He can be sensitive to unexpected movement on walks, especially things like bikes and skateboards, and may try to chase. He’ll do best with a confident handler who can provide guidance and help him feel secure.
He’s friendly with adults and great with other dogs. He hasn’t been tested with cats or young kids, but because he gets excited to see his people and may softly jump up, he’d do best with older or considerate children (10+). He is still figuring out that men in hats are friendly too, and is working on getting over that fear. He could be an only dog as long as his humans are home most of the time, but he truly enjoys canine companionship and would love a friendly dog buddy in his new home.
Argo is a sweet, even‑tempered, loving dog who brings warmth and joy wherever he goes. He’s the kind of companion who fits easily into your life and makes every day a little brighter. Whoever adopts him will be incredibly lucky to call him family.
Please note that some of our dogs are obtained from shelters, surrendered to our care, or released from breeders. Each animal's bio is based on our experience of the animal within our care, an educated guess based on physical characteristics, temperament and information shared. Each dog receives basic grooming when coming into rescue, but for some dogs they have not received grooming attention until recently and grooming may be required shortly after adoption. This will be at the adopter’s expense, so we encourage you to research the breed and be prepared for grooming expenses. Underdog cannot guarantee hypoallergenic or non-shedding qualities of any dogs in our rescue. Some of the animals come from situations where they are lacking experience in a home and confidence in humans. In turn, they require another companion dog and/or a fenced in yard in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit. Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home.
