About Ozzie Clark

Ozzie Clark is a sweet boy looking for his forever home. He came to the shelter in rough shape, having wounds on his face and back, but he’s on the mend and ready for a bright future. His energy is infectious; as soon as he’s out of his kennel, you’ll see him sprinting off, filled with excitement and happiness. While Ozzie is eager to meet new people, he does need a little work on basic manners, as he tends to jump up and get a bit mouthy when he’s thrilled. He’s super smart and food motivated, making him a great candidate for training. He showed some initial hesitance around other dogs at the shelter but did okay existing nearby on a leash. Introducing Ozzie to another dog would need to be done slowly and with supervision. He’s been polite and curious with cats, and in his previous home, he got along fine with dogs, cats, and children. His playful spirit shines through, and he’s just waiting for someone to take him on adventures. Ozzie is already neutered, up to date on his vaccinations, and house trained. He’s in Anderson, IN, and has an adoption fee of $150. Are you ready to welcome this lovable companion into your life?
