About Oreo Arriving D

Oreo is an adventurous and intelligent young pup with a bright outlook on life. After his previous owner went to a senior care center, he was found with his brother Chip and brought into rescue. Now in a foster home, he's getting ready for his big move north, where he's on the lookout for his forever home. Oreo, at just two months old, is picking up the basics of potty training and is eager to alert his humans when it's time to go outside. He does well with kids over 10 and has a playful nature that will keep everyone entertained. This little guy thrives on energy and would love a canine companion to play with, though he’s perfectly fine being the center of attention. Oreo is crate trained, but he may express some feelings about being left alone briefly before settling down. He’s arriving from Texas on July 11, 2026, and will need to be picked up from Ruff Start Rescue in Princeton, MN, between 9 a.m. and noon. As a rescue pup, he’s available through the Foster to Adopt program. Once he arrives in Minnesota, he may need some veterinary care. The foster will be responsible for transportation to vet appointments. Prepare to give this energetic boy the patience and love he needs as he starts his new adventure! What are you waiting for?
