Breed Info:
Cattle Dogs and Carolina Dogs are both intelligent, loyal, and active breeds. They thrive on companionship, structure, and purpose. Known for their problem-solving skills and devotion, they make incredible family dogs for those who enjoy a mix of adventure and quiet connection.
Owner Responsibilities:
Oso’s ideal adopter is someone who values routine, communication, and daily connection. He’ll need regular exercise, mental stimulation, and plenty of love. Continue positive training, feed a balanced diet, and give him a soft place to rest — and you’ll have a best friend for life.
Things to Consider Before Adopting:
Do you have the time and energy for daily walks and companionship?
Is your landlord pet-friendly, and do you have space for a medium-sized dog?
Are you settled enough to commit to a lifelong friend through every season?
Dogs are family — they depend on you, through joy and change alike.
Vet Care:
Oso is healthy, vaccinated, and neutered — but even though he’s in great shape, please take him to your trusted vet soon after adoption to establish ongoing care and keep him thriving.
The 3-3-3 Rule & Commitment for Life:
The first 3 days are for decompressing — everything is new, so give him space and reassurance.
The first 3 weeks are when he’ll start learning your home, your schedule, and your heart.
The first 3 months are when trust blossoms, and he’ll know he’s truly home.
Adopting a dog is a promise — one filled with love, laughter, and a bond that lasts a lifetime.
Why Oso Would Be a Great Addition:
Oso’s calm yet joyful spirit will melt your heart every single day. He’s a steady friend, a loyal shadow, and a source of unconditional love. With Oso by your side, your home will feel warmer, your days fuller, and your heart forever changed. â¤ï¸
