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. I already know some basic cues such as, sit, down, & stay, and I'm putting in the work to learn how to walk nicely on leash.

  • I am full of sunshine, happiness, love... and treats!


  • High Energy: I can become easily frustrated if my energy and exercise needs are not met. I will need positive outlets and a calm environment to help me flourish.

  • I am used to living an active lifestyle! I would love to get up and go adventure with you. Walks, hikes, and trips to the beach or river all sound like a grand time to me!

  • I can't wait to show my new family how playful I am!

  • Watch out, I have mastered the art of irresistible puppy-dog eyes!


  • There is a 100% chance I will make you fall in love with me!

  • Are you ready for me and you to be stuck like glue?


  • The type of home I'm looking for:


  • I need to go to a home without small children. I may accidently knock them over in my excitement or try to steal their toys to play with.

  • I need to be the only dog in the home.

  • I need a home without cats or other small animals.
