Oreo

Oreo is a one-year-old "everything-in-one" mystery mix who is ready to find his forever family. Whether you are looking for a car-ride companion or a professional snuggler, Oreo is your guy. He is a sturdy, medium-large boy weighing in at 55-60 lbs. His DNA results are in, revealing a unique mix of American Staffordshire Terrier, Australian Cattle Dog, and American Pit Bull Terrier, with a dash of 12 other breeds – truly one of a kind!

Oreo had a rough start in life, as he and his siblings were found abandoned, but this sweet boy hasn't let his past dim his bright spirit. He's a social butterfly who recently enjoyed a "day out" with a volunteer, proving he's a natural in the car (he insists on the front seat!) and was a gentleman with people and other dogs at the park. Oreo has "zoomie" spurts but is surprisingly low-maintenance; after about 10 minutes of running or a nice walk, he’s ready to relax. He recently spent an afternoon in a home and was a perfect guest, showing no accidents and already understanding that potty time happens outside. Oreo is fascinated by the television, with Clifford the Big Red Dog being a current favorite. It took him a moment to figure out the purpose of a couch, but once he did, he became a world-class cuddler.

Ideal Home

Oreo gets along great with other dogs and is very sweet-natured. Because he is still a young, bouncy boy who likes to jump up to say "hello," we recommend a home with children ages 10 and up. He hasn't met a cat yet, but we are happy to test him with feline friends upon request. He has a hilarious habit of putting his front legs in his water bowl while he drinks, which is perfect for anyone who appreciates a dog with a sense of humor.

Ongoing Health

Oreo is fully vetted and ready to settle into your heart! His adoption includes a comprehensive health package:

• He was recently dewormed and is consistently maintained on monthly flea, tick, and heartworm prevention.
• Within 10 days of his trip to you, Oreo will receive a fresh health certificate exam and a fecal exam.
