Oreo was brought in from a home where he lived chained to a doghouse. He is about 10 months old and 30 pounds. He is very shy at first but warms up.quickly It took mere minutes for him to discover how to use the doggy door and is house trained. He wo wants to be close to you but it shy until he gets to know you, which makes sense knowing his history.. He would be best with another dog since he is learning how to be indoors and treated with love and kindness. He is a year old and weighs just a bit over 30 lbs.
