About Oso Burrito Boy

Oso is a soulful 5-year-old German Shepherd/Hound mix who offers deep, devoted love to those he chooses to trust. He is a gentle, quiet boy who blossoms into the sweetest love bug when he feels safe and adored, showering his favorite people with affection. Oso is looking for someone to share his quiet life with.

Ideal Home

Oso would thrive in a home that understands his need for patience and kindness when meeting new people. He is a low-maintenance, low-energy companion who enjoys a comfy spot to nap, leisurely walks, occasional car rides, and the presence of his favorite people. He coexists peacefully with other dogs and is respectful of cats, making him a potentially great addition to a home with cat-savvy felines.

Ongoing Health

Oso has no known health conditions mentioned in his description.

Training & Support

Oso can be shy and nervous when meeting new people or in unfamiliar situations. He needs time to warm up and appreciate being allowed to move at his own pace. Patience, kindness, and tasty treats will help his personality bloom. He has been assessed by trainers, and behavior modification has been done as needed.
