Mr. Hugger Orlo

Hi… I’m Orlo.<br/><br/>I am about 4 years old Beagle/ shepherd mix, weighing about 70 lbs with giant heart and am the greatest hugger of all the time. <br/><br/>I am neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and available for adoption in Vancouver, BC. I can travel to Washington or Oregon for the right family. <br/><br/>My adoption fee is $600USD.<br/><br/>Adoption Application: <br/><br/>https://forms.gle/Xzw8a5zpebKT3w6q6<br/><br/>(Please copy & paste if the link is not clickable.)<br/><br/>Here is my story:<br/><br/>I don’t really know how to tell my story, because I’m just a dog. I don’t understand why some dogs get lucky right away while others spend years waiting for someone to choose them.<br/><br/>What I do know is this…<br/><br/>I still believe in people.<br/><br/>I still wag my tail when someone looks at me kindly.<br/>I still do my little happy dance when I get excited.<br/>And I still gently place my paw on your leg when I want you to know I love you.<br/><br/>I heard my foster family call me “the hugger.” I think it’s because I lean into people with my whole heart. When I sit beside you on the couch and look into your eyes, I’m not asking for much. Just love. Just safety. Just someone who won’t leave again.<br/><br/>I’m around 4 years old now, and honestly, I’ve become a pretty simple guy. I don’t need wild adventures or busy dog parks. I don’t need perfection.<br/><br/>I just dream about the little things.<br/><br/>A soft couch.<br/>A quiet home.<br/>Someone saying “good boy” like they mean it.<br/>Morning walks where I can sniff the world.<br/>Movie nights where I can rest my head against your leg.<br/>A family who understands that sometimes big dogs have even bigger feelings.<br/><br/>People say I’m calm and gentle. Slow-moving. Sweet. They laugh when I tap my front paws side to side when I’m happy. I don’t even realize I’m doing it… my heart just gets too full sometimes.<br/><br/>I love the beach. The sand makes me feel peaceful. I love watching the world quietly instead of rushing through it.<br/><br/>And yes… I’ll admit it… lately I’ve been acting like a bit of a wet-food prince. Maybe it’s because I’m still settling in. Maybe because after everything, being spoiled feels nice for once. 😌<br/><br/>There are still things I’m learning. The city can feel scary sometimes. Strange dogs on leashes make me nervous, and I try to act tough before they can hurt me. But my foster family says I’m trying my best. They see the good in me even when I’m unsure.<br/><br/>The truth is… I’ve lived with many dogs before and done beautifully. Deep down, I’m not a bad dog at all. I just need someone patient enough to help me feel safe again.<br/><br/>I also carry a metal pin in my leg from a surgery long ago. It doesn’t hurt me anymore, but maybe it’s a reminder that healing takes time… for all of us.<br/><br/>Somewhere out there, I know my person exists.<br/>Someone who won’t mind that I’m a little slower.<br/>Someone who will understand that love doesn’t always come loudly.<br/>Sometimes it comes quietly…<br/>in a paw resting on your hand,<br/>in warm eyes looking at you from across the couch,<br/>in a dog who just wants to belong.<br/><br/>I’ve spent my whole life waiting for that feeling.<br/><br/>Maybe… maybe it’s you. ❤️<br/><br/>Love,<br/>Orlo

Here is my story:

I don’t really know how to tell my story, because I’m just a dog. I don’t understand why some dogs get lucky right away while others spend years waiting for someone to choose them.

What I do know is this…

I still believe in people.

I still wag my tail when someone looks at me kindly.
