About Oso Burrito Boy

Oso is a 5-year-old German Shepherd/Hound mix with soulful eyes and a heart of gold. He doesn't give his affection away easily, but once he chooses you, you'll be his whole world. His foster mom is his absolute favorite, and it's truly magical to see how his tail wags and his whole body softens when she enters the room. He transforms into the sweetest love bug, happily soaking up pets and reminding you daily of his adoration. Oso is a wonderfully low-maintenance and low-energy companion, content with a comfy place to nap, leisurely walks, occasional car rides, and his favorite people nearby. He has mastered the art of relaxation!

Ideal Home

Oso would do well as the only spoiled companion or with other dogs, as he has excellent canine manners and is respectful of their space. He has also shown promise with cats, minding his own business and giving them space, so he may do well in a home with cat-savvy felines.

Ongoing Health

Oso has no specific health conditions mentioned. His adoption fee includes all vetting, vaccinations, and preventative care.

Training & Support

Oso can be a little shy when meeting new people and may be nervous in unfamiliar situations. He appreciates being allowed to move at his own pace. With patience, kindness, and tasty treats, his personality will bloom. He has been assessed by trainers, and his behavior is modified as needed.
