Odysseus, aka Odie, is an affectionate, joyful boy and we can't believe he's still waiting for his forever home! With a smile as wide as a full moon and a tail that never stops wagging, Odie leans in for pets and greets everyone with warmth and enthusiasm. In his kennel, he's a goofy little "jumping bean," full of personality and excitement. But the moment he's outside, Odie transforms into a calm, focused companion. He stands patiently to have his leash put on and walks beautifully, ready to explore the world by your side. He loves to play catch - though fair warning, he's not always quick to give the ball back! Still, his playful side is matched by a peaceful, easygoing spirit. Odie is respectful and calm when passing other dogs, though he may prefer to choose his own close canine friends. Odie has a heart as big as his grin and is ready to share it with a family who will give him the love he deserves.
