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, & touch, and I'm putting in the work on walking nicely on leash.
• Looking to try cool dog activities or sports? I am a great partner for that!
• 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.
• I am used to living an active lifestyle! I would love to get up and go adventure with you. Walks, hikes, & trips to the beach or river all sound like a grand time to me!
• Making new friends is so much fun! I'm a very social and confident gal.

The type of home I'm looking for:

• My energy and size can be a lot for little kids, but I would do great with older, dog-savvy children.
• I need a home without cats, small dogs or other small animals.
• 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.
