*I'm a favorite of staff and volunteers*. 

 What my friends at OHS say about me:

  • I have been working with the Behavior team at OHS and I'm looking for a special home. It will take time and patience to get to know me. Click the "meet me" button to start the process and schedule an appointment.
  • To learn more about my specific needs, please read my What to Expect handout.
  • I love to learn! You can use my favorite toys or treats as positive reinforcement and to teach me new things.
  • 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.
  • All I need is a soft warm place to lay, and to be told I am the goodest boy.
  • High Energy: I can become easily frustrated if my energy and exercise needs are not met. I will need positive outlets and a calm environment to help me flourish.
  • I had so much fun meeting another dog here in the shelter. My friends at OHS think I would be great at making new dog friends!

The type of home I'm looking for:

  • I would flourish in a calm environment and a low-traffic home.
  • I will need to meet any canine companions prior to getting adopted.
  • I need to go to a home without small children. Loud noises and fast movements can frighten me.
