About Orion

Meet Orion! This special boy has three legs and a goofy personality that’s sure to win you over. Three to four years old and weighing around 49 pounds, Orion is a charming Pit-Pei mix who’s come a long way after his rescue by Forgotten, Now Family. He underwent medical care, including the removal of his back left leg and surgery for cherry eye. Now, he’s fit and ready to embrace life with gusto! Once you earn his trust, Orion reveals his affectionate side. He’s playful and loves toys—squeaky ones are his favorite! You can find him enjoying fetch, tug-of-war, or simply soaking up some sun during walks. His daily routine gives him the structure he thrives on, and he’s crate trained, patiently reminding you when it's time for meals or playtime. Orion may take a bit of time to warm up to new people or situations, so he needs an experienced adopter who senses canine body language and understands the importance of creating a safe space. He has a background of defensive behavior, and he's best suited for a calm, adult-only home without cats or small dogs. While he’s done great with other dogs, a compatible canine buddy could be just what he needs. This loving companion is truly one of a kind. He needs someone willing to invest time and patience to build that bond. Orion promises affection and loyalty in return for your dedication. He may not be for everyone, but for the right person, he is absolutely worth the wait. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let’s get started.
