My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet OSO! He is a 10yo cattle dog mix who we rescued from the South LA shelter. While at the shelter, Oso graduated from K9 Youth Alliance, a program that pairs local youth in under-resourced communities to work hands-on with shelter dogs to teach them basic skills and agility behaviors. When we first got OSO he was a cool cat but has learned to become quite the snuggler while at our kennel.

OSO was surrendered to the shelter with two other dogs and appears relaxed and indifferent. We think he could integrate into another home with calm dogs or be happy as a solo companion where he can get all the attention.

Aside from some "old-age" related conditions like cataracts and arthritis, our vet has given him a clean bill of health. He loves going on walks and short jogs.

OSO weighs about 60lbs, is neutered, micro-chipped, crate-trained, current on shots and appears to be housebroken.

If you are in the Los Angeles area and would like to meet OSO please fill out our brief questionnaire at downtowndogrescue.org/adoption-questionnaire and we will get back to you.
