My story

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

What my friends at OHS say about me:



  • I have been working with the Behavior team at OHS and I'm looking for a special home. It will take time and patience to get to know me. Click the "meet me" button to start the process and schedule an appointment.

  • To learn more about my specific needs, please read my What to Expect handout.


  • I love to learn! You can use my favorite toys or treats as positive reinforcement and to teach me new things.

  • Shy and Nervous: I can be worried about new people, new surroundings and touch. I prefer to take things at my own pace and will need to live in a calm environment.

  • I am a sweet and sensitive guy who takes a little time to build trust and make friends.

  • I am still learning how to walk on leash, especially in new environments that can be overwhelming. I need verbal encouragement, patience and of course treats from you to help me!


  • Biggest sweetheart award goes to.... ME!

  • I may look like a big boy, but I'll do my best to convince you I'm a lap dog!

  • I had so much fun meeting other dogs here in the shelter. My friends at OHS think I would be great at making new dog friends!




The type of home I'm looking for:


  • I would flourish in a calm environment and a low-traffic home.

  • I need to go to a home without small children. Fast movements and loud noises can frighten me.

  • I will need to meet any canine companions prior to getting adopted.

  • It could be with you! Click here to learn about the adoption process.
