‘I`m thrilled to share the remarkable progress my foster Oso has made in just a month! He`s transformed into a calm and laid-back companion, thriving as a couch potato and impressing everyone with his exemplary behavior during boarding. Oso has not only passed evaluations at PetSuites and Natural Breed Kennels Resort but has also been approved for Camp Bow Wow, where he`ll receive a discounted rate as a foster super pet. He`s excelled in four training sessions at Highland Canine, mastering sit, stay, come, and loose leash walking. With reward-based training, he`s learning fast and resiliently. Oso`s socialization journey includes regular store visits (Lowe’s & Home Depot) and upcoming airport trips. Although he`s shown no affection for cats, he remains calm and gentle. I`m eager to distribute his flyer and explore opportunities for him, despite a minor setback due to a past incident. Oso`s determination inspires me to continue providing him with every chance to succeed until he finds his forever home’.
Hi! Wanted to give an update on Oso! He is such a calm sweet pup. He has been great with our small children and our older dog. He also loves his crate. Seems to be potty trained (only one accident on his first night) And he is quite the snuggler! He unfortunately did attack our cat, no blood and everyone is fine. And he took off running when our gate was open. He seemed to think it was a game, once my husband pulled up in his car, Oso hopped right in.

As long the pet is spayed/neutered, you can take them home the same day.
