About Ozzy

Ozzy is a gentle 5 1/2-year-old Yorkshire Terrier currently living in a loving foster home. He has spent most of his life in a difficult situation and is now learning to adjust to family life. He may require extra time to adapt, especially since he hasn't had much experience with people until recently. Walks on a leash can be a challenge for him, so patience is key during walks. He is getting along well with other calm dogs and prefers to coexist rather than engage in play. To help him continue building confidence, Wayside suggests he joins a household with another assured dog. It's important that any potential children in the home be under 10 years old, as loud noises and fast movements can startle him. Living with a patient family who understands his past is crucial. Ozzy is low maintenance and aims to be the best companion possible. He’s proficient at using his belly-band at home and is taking positive steps toward being fully housebroken. With time and love, Ozzy is eager to discover the joy of a true forever home. He is looking for a quiet environment where he can feel safe and secure. His new family will need to ensure he has a securely fenced area for outdoor time or be on a leash at all times. This resilient little guy is ready to start his next chapter, and he hopes it will be with you! Click apply to start the adoption process.
