A4718344  Arwin is a special 6-month-old white-and- red female Labrador Retriever/Pointer mix puppy who came to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center as an owner surrender on June 6th. Weighing 42 lbs and expected to grow to about 60 lbs, Arwin is a sweet and gentle girl who is scared by shelter life at the moment. Because of her timid disposition and a healing wound around her neck presumably caused by a chain collar, our guess is that she has sadly spent most of her life tied up outside. So she is not very accustomed to being indoors or to the company of people. However, after spending some time with our volunteers, she did warm up, become more trusting, and enjoy receiving treats (especially donuts!). She also seemed to respond well to the other dogs that crossed her path. We predict that with the right human companion who can give her time, patience, and plenty of TLC, Arwin will blossom into a superstar dog and indoor pet with a lifetime of love and fun to give.
