Here's what the humans have to say about me:
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION AND REQUIREMENTS FOR ADOPTION.. Osborn is currently in foster care in Houston, Texas and the adoption fee includes his transportation with Rescue Road Trips to the North East
if interested there is an application on our website
www.houstonshaggydogrescue.org/apply/
Osborn is approx 5 years old and 17.5 lbs...he is 65% Shitz tzu, 13 % Lhasa apso and .2% Pekinese per a Dna test we did on him,, he was very matted when we rescued him and had to be shaved down, his coat is growing back and he is going to be a beautiful boy, he did test positive for heart worms and has been treated with the required shots and we usually find that the dogs test negative in 4-6 months..we also started him on a monthly heart worm preventative, he has limited vision in one eye and is on daily eye drops, but otherwise has no issues seeing or getting around. he is a quiet little boy, except when you leave and then he does have some separation anxiety and will bark for 5-10 mins and then settle down, so we feel he would not be good for an apt, and will do better with an older person that is home a lot and can give him lots of attention, he tends to keep to himself and even though he gets along with the other dogs he really doesn't interact with them unless they get in his face and then he is not a happy boy ! he seems to be pretty well house trained , but does not like being restrained per the vet and does better in a harness instead of a leash..he is a sweet boy and is going to be a great companion for someone
