About Ozzy

Meet Ozzy, a charming senior pup who's ready to start the next chapter of his life. Formerly known as Orbot, Ozzy is grateful to Miracle Lane for giving him a second chance. At 8 years and 7 months old, he may sport a few gray hairs, but don’t let that fool you—give him a stuffed toy and he transforms into a playful puppy! Ozzy has had his share of challenges, ending up in the shelter twice before being rescued by a loving foster mom. He's learned that a warm home and a gentle routine make all the difference. He loves to show off his tricks, sitting and giving both paws for a treat or playfully standing on two legs when prompted. With his protective instincts, he’ll let you know if someone comes knocking at the door. House trained and good-natured, Ozzy enjoys calm walks and playtime in quieter areas, preferring to steer clear of busy spots. He's getting better at ignoring distractions, with a little help from his foster mom. Crate trained, he finds comfort in his crate during the day. Ozzy is a fan of boiled chicken, carrots, and potatoes. He also adores puzzle toys that stimulate his mind and get his tail wagging. After a good game of tug-of-war or fetch, you can usually find him dozing off, ready to recharge. Living with Sphynx cats has proven to be a good fit after a gentle introduction—they get along well! What he seeks most is simply the love of a caring family. The transition to a new home may need a bit of patience, but in return, Ozzy promises to give his whole heart. Ready to welcome a loyal companion into your life?
