If you’re dreaming of a perfect dog, your search is over! Meet Archie, a five-year-old smooth collie that’s as perfect as it can get. Sweet, friendly, easy going, obedient and playful! What more can you ask for?

Archie’s foster home says he’s a wonderful family dog. When left alone, he gets free rein of the house, is not destructive, and happily sleeps on the comfy couch. He is fully housebroken. He knows some commands such as come, sit, down and shake; he even walks well on a leash.

Archie loves people and any attention you can give. He’s a little reserved at first when meeting new people but quickly warms up and will soak up all the attention. He loves cuddles and butt scratches and will repay you with little collie kisses. Like most collies, this boy is sensitive and might startle when exposed to sudden and unexpected sounds, but he recovers quickly.

Archie used to live with children and is currently fostered with a respectful 9-year-old boy. He is getting along well with other dogs and likes to play with them. A fenced in yard would be desirable as Archie enjoys being outside in the backyard with his family, running around freely, playing fetch, and exploring the yard.

Archie’s ideal home would be a semi-active family with respectful children, but he would also be fine with a calm family that would allow him to chill on the couch after some playtime and cuddles.

If this isn’t enough collie perfection for you, Archie’s gentle manners and winning personality are complemented by his smooth coated collie good looks. Are you the perfect match for this sweet boy?
