Archie is a handsome all-red haired, 3 year-old, healthy male one half Airedale, one half Irish Terrier. Archie is a great size at 55lbs. This guy is a sweet, gentle, sometimes timid boy, but loves to RUN and also plays with other dogs at home. However, he does not seem to like some dogs when away from home.  Archie is trained to sit, stay, back, and down, and walks well on a leash. At times, he has trouble coming when called when he is off-leash. He loves to chase small critters and may not do well with cats though he started life on a farm. Archie is fine with children of all ages and will retreat if he wants to be left alone. He would be a good addition to a home with other dogs or as an only dog. He would benefit with training for socialization with dogs he does not know.  As always with an Airedale Terrier, a securely fenced yard along with lots of time to spend with your Airedale is a must.  Be sure you have an application in with us at www.nwairedalerescue.org and do email a few pictures showing the front and back of your home showing fencing.  For more information, please call Susan Grey at 208.336.5853.
