Oreo's Story
Meet Oreo!<br/><br/>Oreo's story is one of resilience. At 9 years old, this little chi has already been through more than his fair share. He was taken to the shelter when his family moved and couldn't take him along. Originally given as a “gift,” he sadly wasn't treated like one. But here's the truth: Oreo is a gift - but to the right person.<br/><br/>Personality<br/><br/>Oreo is your classic chihuahua through and through: fiercely loyal to his person, and not a fan of anyone else. His bond runs deep and strong, and once you're in his circle, you're in for life. That said, he takes guarding his person seriously, which can make new introductions and vet visits difficult (he currently needs sedation for exams).<br/><br/>What Oreo Needs<br/><br/>We're looking for an adopter who understands his quirks and is committed to helping him thrive. Oreo would do best with:<br/><br/><br/> <br/> A patient, dog-savvy human who will work with a vet behaviorist to explore medication and training that could make his world feel safer.<br/> <br/> <br/> A home with no children.<br/> <br/> <br/> Someone who respects his space but appreciates his undying loyalty once he trusts you.<br/> <br/> <br/> Oreo needs to be on wet food the rest of his life to protect his fragile jaw (especially now since he has no teeth).<br/> <br/><br/><br/>His Deets:<br/><br/><br/> <br/> Age: 9 years old<br/> <br/> <br/> Teeth: None (but he eats like a champ!)<br/> <br/> <br/> Neutered: Yes<br/> <br/> <br/> Dogs: Good with them<br/> <br/> <br/> Cats: Tolerates them — doesn't chase, but doesn't want them too close<br/> <br/> <br/> People: Loves his person, not so much anyone else<br/> <br/><br/><br/>Could You Be Oreo's Person?<br/><br/>Oreo may not be the easiest dog, but he is worth it. With the right home, the right support, and a whole lot of love, Oreo has the chance to finally live the happy, stable life he deserves.<br/><br/>If you think you're the one who can give Oreo his forever, unwavering home, we'd love to hear from you.
