About Ozzie

Meet Ozzie! This charming little Chihuahua is about two years old and weighs around 15 lbs. Ozzie is a loving companion who enjoys being affectionate and playful. He loves treats and typically sleeps well, making him a delightful addition to any home. He gets along well with other dogs and would really thrive with a furry friend. However, Ozzie struggles with being left alone; he tends to cry when solitary, so an apartment setting may not suit him. We're working on helping him build tolerance for alone time, which is a gradual process. Ozzie is learning leash training and, while a bit nervous about walks, is showing signs of improvement. With continued training and a little confidence building, he promises to be a wonderful lifelong companion. We recommend a home for Ozzie with kids aged 12 and older. Ozzie is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. His adoption fee is $450, which supports his medical care prior to adoption. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
