Oshie

Meet Oshie! Oshie is an 8-year-old black tri Australian Shepherd with a nub tail, weighing about 60 pounds. He's a loyal, affectionate companion who loves being with his people and is happiest when included in everyday activities. Don't let his age fool you—Oshie is still an active dog who enjoys running, exploring, and outdoor adventures. While he'll chase a ball, he's usually more interested in running around and having fun than playing fetch. Oshie gets along well with both dogs and cats. He lived peacefully with a cat for six years and has successfully lived with other dogs throughout his life. He tends to mind his own business and does well in multi-pet households. He can be a little reserved when meeting new people, but once he warms up, he's incredibly affectionate. Oshie loves belly rubs, cuddling, and being close to his family. As a true Velcro Aussie, he would thrive in a home where someone is around much of the time.
