Archer
From the moment Archer was born, my breath was taken away. I was drawn to him from the very beginning, and that feeling never went away. He reminded me so much of mama Arya as he grew up, independent, yet cuddly and engaged. Happy to do a training session, happy to independently explore, or happy to play tug for seemingly forever. He was Arya’s favorite puppy for quite some time, and he was super respectful playing with her from the moment he started to play.
He was very much my little buddy here at the house. Curling up by my feet to take a nap as I did dishes, following me around the front yard, coming to the pen fence when he heard me near - in the past week before going to his new home, he got so excited when he heard Mike’s car parking in the driveway. He’s just the most special little dude.
We knew he needed the perfect home, as he truly felt too special for this world. As the weeks continued on, we consistently became more and more sure of our decision of where Archer was going. We are so excited to welcome Tiff & Tim to the Rising Tide family, as the new parents to Archer, and are so excited to have this boy as a co-own. We are incredibly excited and blessed that they don’t live too far, in Pennsylvania, so we can see him often enough! Archer will be doing all of the things, but primarily will be Tiff’s new agility buddy. I love you so much Stoatums, I can’t wait to see you so so so soon!
