spayed female, 3 yrs 1 mths 74 lbs

What my friends at OHS say about me:

  • I am a full time love-bug and part time cuddle-bug.
  • I know I am a big big lady, but I sometimes forget my strength when I'm excited for walks, especially when I want to stop to smell the roses. I'll need encouragement through training!
  • I would much prefer a leisurely sniffari walk than joining you for anything too fast paced.
  • I love nothing more than making new friends, human and canine!
  • I am the perfect blend between active and calm.
  • Don't you want to be known as the person with the incredibly cute and fantastic doggo? All you have to do is adopt me!
  • I have medial patellar luxation (MPL) in 1 or more knees. This may need long term management or surgery.
  • I have hip dysplasia and may require long term management.
  • High Energy: I can become easily frustrated if my physical and mental exercise needs are not met. I will need positive outlets and a calm environment to help me flourish.
  • Escape Artist: I have a history of escaping doors or fences. I will need supervision when outdoors or we can go on adventures together - on leash of course!

The type of home I'm looking for:

  • I need a home without cats or other small animals.

  • I'm a fiend for food! Snacks are a great way to make friends with me and win your way into my heart.
  • Feeling like you're missing something? I might be the perfect fit!
  • I am still learning how to walk on leash, especially in new environments that can be overwhelming. I need verbal encouragement, patience and of course treats from you to help me!
  • To learn more about my specific needs, please read my What to Expect handout.

     Meet Virga: The Bouncy, Wiggly Wonder! 🐾 Virga is a 4-year-old Terrier mix who truly embodies "puppy energy." She is a professional wiggle-butt-always bouncy, perpetually happy, and ready to take on the world. Because she loves life so much, she can sometimes get a little over-stimulated, showing her excitement through jumping or mouthy play. She isn't being "naughty"; she's just an enthusiastic girl who hasn't quite learned how to use her "inside voice" yet. This spirited girl is looking for a kind, patient adopter who can help her channel all that bubbly energy into positive outlets. She thrives with handlers who can guide her toward "good choices"-like swapping a jump for a sit or a mouthy greeting for a favorite toy. With a little focus and a lot of love, Virga's "main character energy" will make her the most loyal and entertaining companion you've ever had.

    Meet Altair, a 1.5-year-old Alaskan Malamute who is equal parts "gentle giant" (? NOTE  listed as only 58 lbs..) and "mischievous teenager." Altair is essentially a big puppy in a full-grown coat-he's got bundles of energy, a zest for adventure, and a playful spirit that will keep you on your toes. He is also incredibly food-motivated, which is his secret superpower; if you've got a treat in hand, you've got his full attention, making him a fantastic candidate for positive-reinforcement training. Because he is at that energetic, formative age, he's looking for an active leader who can provide the structure, routine, and consistent guidance he craves to channel his smarts. If you're ready to put in the work to shape a truly loyal companion, Altair is waiting to start his next chapter with you!

    Meet Abby, the 5-year-old velvet hippo who wears her heart on her sleeve (and is likely currently wiggling with excitement). Abby is an absolute sweetheart who adores her people, though she's still working on her "polite greeter" manners. She gets very enthusiastic when she meets new friends, so she's looking for a family who can help her channel that zest for life! ⚡️ The good news? Abby is incredibly treat-motivated! 🦴 Because she is so food-driven, she is a rockstar when it comes to training. With a little consistency and a pocket full of snacks, she's quick to learn and eager to please. If you're looking for a fun-loving, loyal partner who is ready to learn and grow with you, Abby is your girl! 💖🐶
