He arrived at the West Milford Animal Shelter about a month ago after he and a companion dog were taken from a home in poor condition.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">At the time of his arrival, Arthur was underweight and suffering from ear infections and sore paws, among other things. Since then, he has received veterinary care and medication, and his health has improved. The shelter has also found that he is allergic to some foods, including chicken, so a special diet is necessary.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Arthur is a companion dog who loves to be indoors with people and may think of himself as a lap dog or indoor cat. He is very affectionate, peaceful and mellow, is not aggressive in any way and does not pull on walks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Calm, friendly and easygoing, Arthur would be a great companion for the right person.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">If you are interested in Arthur, you can kick off the adoption process by contacting the <a href=\"https:\/\/westmilfordanimalshelter.org\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:West Milford Animal Shelter;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">West Milford Animal Shelter<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><em>This article originally appeared on NorthJersey.com: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.northjersey.com\/story\/news\/local\/2025\/10\/31\/cane-corso-for-adoption-arthur-west-milford-nj-animal-shelter\/86991051007\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Adopt Arthur, cane corso dog, from West Milford Animal Shelter;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Adopt Arthur, cane corso dog, from West Milford Animal Shelter<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Meet NorthJersey.com&#8217;s adoptable pet of the week for Oct. 31!
