About Ozy

Ozy is an easygoing senior dog who relishes the company of others and lounging around. He came to us after one of the kids in his previous home developed a severe allergy to him, and now he's on the lookout for a new cozy spot to call home. In his last environment, Ozy lived with young children, a small dog, and a cat. He maintained order in his own way, giving a bark when things got too noisy but mostly staying put and accepting the chaos with his signature huff. This lovable fellow enjoys watching the world pass by from the window, curling up in comfy spots, and occasionally catching up on TV. He’ll let you know with a bark if something catches him off guard. Ozy is currently receiving treatment for ongoing skin issues and appreciates a good back scratch to ease his discomfort. He would thrive best in a home with older pets as well as compassionate adults and older kids who understand his delightful, sometimes grumpy, old man personality. Come meet him at SPCA Cincinnati today!
