ORSON's Story

Go Fetch with Orson! <br/>Meet Orson—a handsome German Shepherd with a gentle side and a playful streak just waiting to shine!<br/> <br/> <br/>Shelter life can feel a bit overwhelming for this thoughtful guy, so he may seem a little shy at first. But get him out into the real world, and you’ll see a whole new Orson. On a recent day out, he had an absolute blast—sniffing along the trails, rolling happily in the grass, and taking everything in stride. Squirrels? Dogs? Kids? Even goats? Orson handled it all like a pro. He was also a perfect gentleman in the car!<br/> <br/> <br/>And let’s talk about his favorite thing: fetch! This boy lights up when it’s time to chase a ball. He’s also incredibly affectionate and loves being close to his people, soaking up attention and companionship.<br/> <br/> <br/>Orson is the kind of dog who just wants to be part of a family—to go on adventures, play, relax, and be loved. With a little patience, his confidence blossoms, and his sweet, fun personality really comes through.<br/> <br/> <br/>If you’re looking for a loyal companion with both a gentle nature and a playful side, Orson might be your guy. Come meet him and see if you’re the “somebody” he’s been waiting for! <br/> <br/>Orson has participated in shelter playgroups and may enjoy a compatible canine friend in his new home. He's also sharing his shelter suite with a friend he met at the shelter. Looking for a buddy for your dog? Bring him/her to the shelter for a meet and greet and see if we're a match! Check out his playgroup video here: <br/> <br/> <br/>To meet me, visit the Bradshaw Animal Shelter Tuesday-Sunday, Noon - 5:00 pm, Wednesdays, Noon - 6:00 pm. All adoptions are on a first-come, first-served basis. To help expedite the meet and greet process, please make note of my Animal ID number, and those of other dogs you might be interested in meeting. Be sure to bring your ID with you, too. We are located at 3839 Bradshaw Road, Sacramento. I look forward to getting to know you!
