Hi… I’m Orlo. I am about 4 years old Beagle/ shepherd mix, weighing about 70 lbs with giant heart and am the greatest hugger of all the time. I am neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and available for adoption in Vancouver, BC from May 7th. I can travel to Washington or Oregon for the right family. My adoption fee is $650USD.

When I look into your eyes, I’m not just looking— I’m trying to understand you. To connect with you. To know that I’m safe… and that you are too. I’ve always believed that love is something you share quietly. Not loud. Not rushed. Just… close. If you sit on the couch, I’ll come and sit beside you. Not because I need attention… but because I want to be near you. And sometimes… I’ll gently place my paw on you. That’s my way of saying, “I’m here.” “Can we stay like this for a while?” If you don’t notice right away, I’ll try again. Softly. Patiently. Because I’ve learned that the best things in life are worth waiting for. I’m not a busy, high-energy kind of dog. I enjoy my walks, my time outside… but what I love most are the quiet moments. The ones where nothing is happening— but everything feels right. When your hand rests on me… when I lay my head beside you… when the world slows down, and it’s just us. I get along with everyone. Dogs, people… I just want peace. I don’t look for trouble. I look for connection. For someone who understands that sometimes, the deepest love doesn’t come with excitement… it comes with presence. With stillness. With trust. I don’t know exactly what my forever home will look like… But I imagine it often. A quiet space. A soft couch. A person who lets me sit close… who doesn’t mind when I reach out my paw… who understands that I’m not just asking for pets— I’m asking to belong. And if you let me… I’ll give you something special. Not just loyalty… not just companionship… But a kind of love that feels steady, calm, and real— the kind that stays… right by your side. Always.
