My story

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

Meet Ozy, a one-year-old Labrador retriever and border collie mix with all the lovable qualities of a lab in a slightly smaller package.

Full grown at 55 lbs, Ozy loves water, is an expert at playing fetch and has the best nature. He’s friendly, lovable, a little goofy and just wants to sit on your lap! He’s great with other dogs of all ages and shows remarkable patience with the small puppies in his foster home.

Ozy is a turn-key ready dog. He was rescued from a rural shelter in July 2024 and has been learning how to be a good dog in his foster home ever since. Ozy is 100-percent potty trained, crate trained, easy to walk on a leash and obedient. He’s a good listener. He’ll come when you call his name and go to his crate when told. He aims to please his person. He loves a good treat, but it isn’t required for him to listen to instructions. Ozy is very smart and learns new skills quickly.

Ozy does best with a good walk in the morning, but his energy level isn’t off the charts for being part border collie. But we would like his forever home to be an active one. Ozy would love to go on all the adventures with his new family. He absolutely loves going for car rides, and he would truly thrive going on hikes or walks in new places with his forever family.
