PUPDATE 2
Argo is a friendly dog who does well with other dogs, but he can be a bit intense in his approach which may be tough for other dogs. He wants to play very hard (e.g., bodyslamming) and can be rude (getting too close to the other dog, especially from the front). With the proper socialization and introductions, he will do VERY well. He needs an owner committed to helping him learn proper interactions.
Argo is the quietest dog we've ever hosted. He simply lays calmly and quietly in his crate when he's left alone. He will sometimes whine when he sees other dogs out (FOMO), because he wants to be out, too! I have not heard him bark.
Energy level on the higher end of medium - he’s not a working dog but athletic and can use 30-60 min of exercise a day, if not more.
PUPDATE 1
Argo wakes up with the rest of the crew between 4 and 5am for potty, poop, breakfast, and cuddles. Another potty and yard break at 7am before hanging out in his crate for approximately 7-8 hours while foster parents are at work. In the afternoons and evenings, he rotates with boarding and resident dogs for walks, yard time, play time, and training.
Argo LOVES people! He can be a little shy at first but warms up quickly. He hasn't met any children while in my care.
Argo and I are working on his leash manners. We are currently using a prong collar as he does pull quite a lot. We recently introduced him to the ecollar inside and will be training him on it for walks outside. He will need an owner committed to maintaining his training.
Argo is a friendly dog who does well with other dogs. We haven't had him off leash with other dogs yet, but he does do well coexisting on a walk with another dog. Argo is interested in our cat but doesn't chase her.

Argo is a unicorn dog that I wish we could keep! He's a truly special soul. I can't believe how amazing he is - he's smart, sweet, playful, fun, and athletic. Truly the best foster dog we've ever had!
