My story

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

Meet Ozzie! This pocket size fluff is what they like to call a cowboy corgi- Austrailian sheperd mixed with Corgi! Ozzie is 28 pounds and about 1 year old. He does well in a crate and is starting to lean to walk on a leash but will need more work with that to make walks fun and exciting! Ozzie is very fun to be around and loves to play. Both of the breeds he is mixed with are working dogs, mainly used for herding. So, it would be important to keep him active with lots of walks, play time and maybe even things like obstacle courses to make him feel like he has a job. Due to the herding genes in him Ozzie does like to herd things like people and other dogs. It would be essential for Ozzie to have a family that is willing to work with a trainer that will guide them on ways to help engage his instincts in the right way. Ozzie does fine with other dogs but would be best in a home with a dog that also loves to romp and play, and would do best in a home with older children while he learns to control jumping.

Interested in becoming a forever home for Ozzie O? Fill out our online adoption application: http://www.friendswithfourpaws.org/adoption-form.html This is the first step in our process, and we don't go any further without an application.

We put a lot of time and energy into processing our adoptions to find our babies the best fit home for them and you. Please do not submit an application if you are not serious about adopting Ozzie O.
We are so excited to work with you to find you a new forever friend, and Ozzie O the perfect forever home, and appreciate you working with us.

Our adoption fee is $525. This includes their spay/neuter surgery, full (age appropriate) vaccinations, microchip insertion and registration, deworming, heartworm testing and prevention, flea and tick prevention and travel expenses.

All of our dogs are rescued from local shelters and the general public. Each dog is then placed in a foster home where he/she is kept for quarantine, to ensure if the dog gets sick it can receive proper treatment. We have foster homes in the NJ/NY area waiting to receive their fosters. Once an animal has received an application or there's an adopter interested, we make arrangements for transport. If a dog is already in foster care in NYC/NJ, an adopter will be put in touch with the foster home AFTER an application is being processed.

Thank you in advance for your patience with our process and for making adoption YOUR option!
