What my friends at OHS say about me:

• I came all the way to OHS through the Second Chance Program.
• Give me a little time to adjust and I will show you I am the biggest sweetheart.
• Playing really helps me come out my shell and it's a great way for us to bond. Squeaky toys are my favorite!
• Mental enrichment activities are a great way to entertain me and work my brain.
• I am not for the first time dog owner. Someone very familiar with canine body language is a must for me.
• Shy and Nervous: I can be worried about new people, new surroundings and touch. I prefer to take things at my own pace and will need to live in a calm environment.
• I will need to meet any canine companions prior to getting adopted.

The type of home I'm looking for:

• I'm looking for a patient and understanding family who can give me the love and stability I need to truly blossom.
• I can be picky about my canine companions. Slow introductions and having my own space will be important for me to adjust to a home with resident dogs.
• Loud noises and unpredictable movements can make me uncomfortable, I would do best in a home with calm, older children.
