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. I already know some basic cues
such as, sit, down, wait, touch, retrieve, & crate and I'm putting
in the work to learn how to walk nicely on leash!
- 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.
- I am used to living an active lifestyle! I
would love to get up and go adventure with you. Looking to try cool dog
activities or sports? I am a great partner for that!
- 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.
- Resource Guarding: I have a history of guarding my people, food, toys and/or bedding from other animals or people.
- I really enjoy the company of my human friends.
The type of home I'm looking for:
- I had so much fun meeting other dogs here in the shelter. My friends at OHS think I would be great at making new dog friends!
- I will need to meet any canine companions prior to getting adopted.
- I need to go to an adult only home.
- I need a home without cats or other small animals.
- It could be with you! Click here to learn about the adoption process.
