My story

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

Oreo is a sweet, affectionate, and wonderfully chunky girl who knows how to steal hearts. At four years old, she’s past the crazy puppy stage but still young enough to enjoy plenty of adventures with her humans. She’s a total velcro pup, following you around the house, curling up by your side, and even claiming the lap she believes is rightfully hers.

She’s house-trained, confident, and comfortable in a crate, loves using the doggy door, and has a delightful clumsy charm that makes you smile. Oreo adores rawhide bones, Kongs, and treats, and is a quick learner for any new tricks or commands. She’s playful and gentle with other dogs, though she does like her own space while sleeping.

Oreo loves walks, sniffing everything along the way, but she also enjoys lazy weekends, TV snuggles, and belly rubs. She’s social, loving, and ready to be a loyal companion who mirrors your energy, whether it’s an adventurous outing or a quiet day on the couch.If you’re looking for a gentle, charming, and slightly oversized lapdog with endless love to give, Oreo might just be your perfect match.

Oreo is a field trip and pawjama party favorite who has gotten rave reviews!

“Oreo is such a calm and sweet girl. Very much along for the ride - she loved looking out the car window. She also loved people watching at the brewery and being outside. She warms up quickly and is very loving. She`s a sucker for treats!”

“Miss Oreo was a perfect princess today. She loves pets and cuddles and all of the attention. She is super friendly and is good on the leash. Super sweet dog!”

“Oreo did awesome! She loves to smell everything while going on a walk, but is very good on the leash. She is very calm and liked to sit/lay near me when we were taking a break. Very good in the car and liked to lay down and look out the windows.”

Oreo is energetic and loves treats and attention. She knows how to sit, lay down, shake, and spin. Very food motivated and so sweet. Very well house trained. Good walker and loves to be with people.”
