Introducing Ozzwald!! This handsome little guy ended up on the euthanasia list at a local shelter after only a couple of days because he was absolutely terrified and too scared to walk on a leash. Thankfully, an amazing foster family stepped up just in time and saved his life with only minutes to spare. Now that he’s safe in a home, Ozzwald is thriving and showing everyone what a sweet, loving puppy he truly is. Ozzy is estimated to be about 5 months old and currently weighs 32 pounds. He’s got the cutest puppy face, soft fur, and a goofy personality that keeps everyone smiling. He is the sweetest little soul. This sweet boy absolutely LOVES other dogs and would thrive in a home with a playful canine companion. Having another confident pup around really helps him continue building confidence and coming out of his shell. He also has a cat in his foster home and does well with it. He can gladly take a snooze right next to him no problem. He enjoys attention, is doing great with potty and kennel training, and is learning that the world is not such a scary place after all. Ozzwald is also doing well on leash and rides nicely in the car, making him the perfect future adventure buddy. While he can be a little shy at first, once he feels safe his loving and silly personality shines through. He also loves the kids in his foster home. If you are seeing a trend here it's that Ozzy boy is pure love. Although he’s blossoming in foster care, it’s clear Ozzwald hasn’t had the easiest start in life. Like so many stray dogs, we suspect he may not have always been treated kindly before rescue. Because of that, he’ll need a patient and loving family committed to continuing his socialization, training, and confidence building so he can grow into the amazing dog he’s meant to be. His foster family said he is "so easy" for a puppy and they absolutely adore him. Ozzwald is being fostered in Houston, Texas but is available for adoption in many places across the country. His $600 adoption fee includes transport. If you are seeing this post we have transport options to your area!
