Story
Meet Oso! Oso is a 1.5-year-old Akita/Shepherd mix with a gentle heart and beautiful manners. About 70 lbs, tall and fluffy, he’s a sweet, well-mannered “teen” who can be a little shy at first but quickly blossoms into an affectionate, loyal companion once he feels safe. He enjoys outdoor play and zoomies, then happily settles into a calm, cuddly house dog. Oso does great with other dogs, is house and crate trained, walks nicely on leash, and would thrive in a home with a yard and a confident canine buddy. If you’re looking for a soft, loving soul who rewards patience with deep devotion, Oso could be your perfect match Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 1, 2026, 5:12 pm
