Orzo's Story

Orzo is a sweet, sensitive soul who loves absolutely everyone he meets, especially dog and cat friends. He loves to play with toys and chew bones, and he does the most adorable hop when he is happy. He has great leash manners and loves going on walks and romping in the back yard. He likes dogs who are small like him, but will truly play with any dog of any size and is a good mix of playful and docile.<br/><br/>Orzo loves to nap in small spaces, like his kennel, the laundry hamper, or anywhere he can nuzzle up and get cozy. He loves to sleep in his kennel and considers it his "safe space," but he has recently also taken a liking to his foster mom's bed. He's not a big cuddler but does loves to sleep next to his foster dog and cat siblings. <br/><br/>Orzo absolutely thrives when he has another dog to play with and take cues from, so his ideal home has a confident doggie bestie for him. He is a homebody who doesn't care for car rides (most likely from a past trauma associated with a vehicle before he was rescued), so he needs lots of gentle TLC when travel is needed. His ideal person is someone who is home often, is kind, loves to go on walks, and most importantly has a dog friend for him to play with.<br/><br/>If you're ready to open your home to this exquisitely perfect little fellow, he's more than ready to meet you (and especially your dog). <3<br/><br/>**Adoptable in the greater Austin, Texas, area only.**
