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.
• I am a sweet and sensitive guy who takes a little time to build trust and make friends.
• 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!
• Biggest sweetheart award goes to.... ME!
• I may look like a big boy, but I'll do my best to convince you I'm a lap dog!
• 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 need to go to a home without small children. Fast movements and loud noises can frighten me.
• I will need to meet any canine companions prior to getting adopted.
• It could be with you! Click here to learn about the adoption process.
