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 & wait and I'm putting in the work on walking nicely on leash!
• Escape Artist: I have a history of escaping doors or fences. I will need supervision when outdoors or we can go on adventures together - on leash of course!
• 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 have been known to shower my favorite people with love! I love cuddles and pets. I'm convinced I'm the perfect lap dog.
• 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.

The type of home I'm looking for:

• I may do best in a home without cats or small animals, but having another dog to play with could be fun!
• I will need to meet any canine companions prior to getting adopted.
• I need to go to a home without tiny children. I may accidently knock them over in my excitement or try to steal their toys to play with.
• It could be with you! Click here to learn about the adoption process.
