My story

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

This cutie is Lizzy, a very shy but sweet yorkie. Lizzy takes a while to warm up to people, and is nervous about new places. But once you do get to know Lizzy, she likes to lay in your lap for chin scratches or lean over your shoulder like a little baby for back scratches. Lizzy is still working on potty training so she wears a diaper if she`s not going to go outside for a while. She has a new best friend, another foster in the house called Bandit, and he has really helped her learn that it`s ok to run and have fun outside for a while, which is good for both of them! They like to sleep in their doggy beds next to each other, and Lizzy is very entertained by Bandit playing fetch or making his toys squeak. They run around each other in circles, and Lizzy gets wiggly with tail wagging excitement. So though Lizzy is shy, she is so much fun to have around when she warms up and relaxes with new people. She likes to let her tongue hang out, and it is really cute. She will lay next to you on a pillow, blanket, sweater, or even the windowsill, and it`s very sweet. She looking for someone patient and caring who can help me continue to grow and feel safe, another dog her size and energy is what she needs. She is a quiet girl around 5 years old and fully vetted. Her adoption fee is $320.00 (or $450 for Both Bandit and Lizzy) If you think we could be a good match, she love to meet you! Please go to our website - OFOSA.ORG and fill out the application and her foster mom will contact you.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

View available pets on our website. Adopt-a-pet is not always accurate. Our website is accurate up to the minute.
Browse our website. www.ofosa.org

Website notes: Updated animal data is sent to the website as frequently as possible. Be sure to refresh the adoption pages in your browser for the latest information. Profiles of available pets are displayed on the available for adoption pages (Dogs and Cats). All information we have concerning an animal’s temperament and health is included on their profile.

Meet the animals and an Adoption Counselor
Once you’ve found an animal (or two!) that you’re interested in adopting, please email us at info@ofosa.org to set up a meet and greet with the foster family who is taking care of that pet. All pets have received an examination and assessed for any health or possible behavioral concerns to the extent possible while in our care.

REQUIREMENTS: All members of the family along with any other dogs must be present to meet the new animal to make sure that everyone is compatible! Dogs must not live as outdoor pets and all animals are REQUIRED to be spayed or neutered. Certain breeds will not be adopted to apartment dwellers. We also reserve the right to refuse to place an animal in a home without a fenced in back yard. We adopt our animals based on a first come, first qualified basis. Our main concern is to match our animals with the most ideal home, the decision is based on many different factors.

Complete the adoption
If you so choose, you are able to take the pet home on the same day that you first meet them. When you’ve found a great match, it’s time to complete the adoption process! You’re welcome to ask our volunteers or fosters questions about training and for tips on helping your new pet adjust to your home.

Placing Pets on Hold: We do not place animals on hold. We adopt out on a First Come, First Qualified basis.

Medical or Behavior Consults: If the pet you’re interested in has any medical conditions, we will arrange pre-adoption consultations with our medical / clinic staff so you know what to expect.
