Osa

Osa is an almost 7-month-old male puppy with a Shepherd father and a Border Collie mother. He's currently in his adolescent phase, which means he's testing boundaries, can be a bit nippy, and enjoys rough play with his foster dog sibling. Osa is primarily housetrained but does have occasional accidents when he gets overexcited. This is a crucial time for herding breed puppies, akin to human teenage years, where consistent training, daily exercise, and clear boundaries are key to shaping them into well-mannered adults. With patient and positive guidance, Osa is an intelligent pup capable of learning quickly. Families who invest in his continued socialization, mental enrichment, and regular activities will be rewarded with a loyal and devoted companion. Adopting a dog at this age is a commitment to guiding them into becoming an exceptional family member.
