My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Contact foster at, wengarcia77@yahoo.com

Orion arrived at the shelter in July. He went on lots of daycations and was a volunteer favorite, remaining calm, happy, and upbeat while patiently waiting to be rescued. In mid October he finally got into foster and everything we suspected about him turned out to be true! Orion is
- great with dogs
- great with kids
- house trained and crate trained
- non destructive
- affectionate and well mannered
- likes his sniffing walks and doesn`t pull on leash
- enjoys playing with toys and his male dog foster sibling
- is heartworm positive and adopter will go home with treatment
