"OREO" foster homeBEST loving personable MCNAB/Border Collie mix "OHS- Portland"

UPDATE 11/10/26 ADOPTED!!!

I am part of the Diamond in the Ruff program, which you can learn more about here. ...Similar to *foster to adopt*

Oreo is a very special dog!! Someone will be very lucky to adopt her. Please be patient with her as she has sensitive nature (but not neurotic haha) It took her awhile to relax in the shelter and may take time in her new home to fully adjust (which is true of most dogs...)

She is chill yet also playful, smart and a great companion!

Note - she does NOT have the energy level that you would expect from a Border collie/Mcnab

"OREO" AVAILABLE FOR Adoption at Oregon Humane Society in PORTLAND

"OREO" #334938

	available 10/21/26 spayed female 2 yrs 1 mth 44 lbs (underweight) $400 Looks like: Mcnab, Border Collie What my friends at OHS say about me: I am a sweet and sensitive girl who takes a little time to build trust and make friends. Treats and time are the way to my heart! Give me some of each and as I get more comfortable my true personality will shine. I've had a hard time adjusting to shelter life and my friends here are still getting to know me. Soft voices, a calm home, and high-value treats will be the key to unlocking my true personality! 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! I will need to meet any canine companions prior to getting adopted. 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 am part of the Diamond in the Ruff program, which you can learn more about here. I would prefer to be the only dog in the home. Interested in adopting me? Animals available for adoption in foster homes need a special questionnaire submitted. From there, we will make an initial appointment for a phone consult to discuss their needs, and then schedule a meet and greet. Appointments are set on a first-come first-served basis in the order that we receive the questionnaires.
