Archie — Your Gentle Giant with a Heart of Gold
Meet Archie, a stunning 68 pound Giant Schnauzer with a sleek black coat and a touch of brown around his muzzle that gives him a distinguished, wise look. He’s a big boy with an even bigger heart — calm, affectionate, and ready to be someone’s loyal best friend.
Archie loves car rides and will happily be your co pilot wherever you go. He’s working on his leash manners and learning not to jump up when he’s excited — he’s eager to please and responds beautifully to gentle guidance.
He’s great with dogs, cats, and kids, making him a wonderful fit for a family or anyone who enjoys a peaceful, friendly companion. Archie’s happiest when he has a yard to explore, where he can sniff, wander, and take in the world at his own pace.
But what Archie loves most is attention and snuggles — he’ll lean in close, rest his head on your lap, and remind you that unconditional love really does exist.
If you’re looking for a loyal, gentle soul who’ll fill your days with warmth and quiet joy, Archie is ready to ride home with you.

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
