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, stay, leave it, and walking nicely on leash.
• 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.
• High Energy: I can become easily frustrated if my energy and exercise needs are not met. I will need positive outlets to help me flourish.
• I am used to living an active lifestyle! I would love to get up and go adventure with you. Runs, hikes, and beach trips all sound like a grand time!
• Looking to try cool dog activities or sports? I am a great partner for that! How about some agility, Nose Work, barn hunt, or Frisbee?
• 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!

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. Fast movements and loud noises can frighten me.
• It could be with you! Click here to learn about the adoption process.
