Bubblegum

What my friends at OHS say about me:

• Do you enjoy games? Me too! Games with balls, squeaky toys, toys that hide food, you name it, I'm up for it! Exercise and games will be what help keep me (and you!) happiest.
• I'm a lively and intelligent dog who will need to be provided with daily mental and physical stimulation.
• I will follow you around for attention - spending time with my people is the best part of the day!
• I would love to get up and go adventure with you.
• My last foster parent gave me a glowing review: she said I'm a great sleeper, am well housetrained and do well in the kennel!
• I sometimes think humans are toys - chasing, pouncing, and grabbing onto arms and legs. I'll need help with re-directing my energy onto appropriate toys as well as being rewarded when I'm in a calm and relaxed state.
• 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 and a calm environment to help me flourish.
• Resource Guarding: I have a history of guarding my people, food, toys and/or bedding from other animals or people.

The type of home I'm looking for:

• I am part of the Diamond in the Ruff program, which you can learn more about here.
• I am not for the first time dog owner. Someone very familiar with canine body language is a must for me.
• I need to be the only dog in the home.
• I need a home without cats or other small animals.
• I need to go to a home without small children.
• It could be with you! Click here to learn about the adoption process.

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.
