About Oso

Oso is a 4-year-old, large Husky mix with the spirit of an explorer and the loyalty of a best friend. Built for adventure but happiest as a constant companion, Oso thrives with an active person ready to hit the trails, climb a mountain, and still save room for plenty of couch cuddling. He’s house trained, crate trained, neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and handled car rides like a pro. Oso’s foster has figured out he’s surprisingly quiet for a Husky but will let out a playful 'woo woo' when he thinks you’re not paying enough attention. He gets along well with dogs of all sizes, but cats are a hard no—he’s just too focused for feline roommates. Oso bonds closely and will want to follow you from room to room, so he needs a home where he isn’t left bored and unstimulated; he becomes destructive if his energy isn’t channeled. His ideal home is active, outdoorsy, and ready to include Oso as both an exercise buddy and a nightly snuggle partner. If you want a dog who will make every activity more fun and fill your life with goofy affection, Oso is waiting to meet you in Tucson, AZ. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today.
