Meet Oreo! Oreo is approximately 3 years old and is thought to be a Border Collie-type mix. Unfortunately, Oreo's owners fell on some hard times after a family member passed away, so he and his two canine siblings were surrendered so that they could find a new family who could provide them loving care. Oreo is a shy baby who seems to rely on the confidence of his brother Chino to guide him. He will likely do best in a home with another dog who can do the same for him. He was bred on a farm, and it's possible that his parent dogs were also under-socialized, which can then be passed down to puppies. That being said, he's sweet and friendly, and should learn quickly in the right setting! Oreo's ideal family would be patient and loving, understanding that he may be bashful and need extra time to feel safe. It's important not to rush him, and give him plenty of time to decompress and process all of these changes (including the loss of one of his owners, and then the change of environment). It would be helpful to also provide Oreo with a crate/safe space of his own so that he can excuse himself if he needs a break. Oreo would love an owner who can also include him on walks and sniffy-time adventures outside! He came to us pretty overweight, so he will benefit from the extra exercise. He would love to have a doggy playmate and would benefit from continued training for obedience, leash walking, potty training, and positive social interactions. He may always be bashful, so his family should be OK with it if he doesn't want to befriend every stranger he sees. This lovely little man is polite, affectionate and has the sweetest disposition!
