Axel

What my friends at OHS say about me:

• I am sure to wiggle and waggle my way into your heart.
• I know I am a big boy, but I sometimes forget my strength when I am so excited to go for walks. My friends say I am responsive to training and getting better!
• Giddy-up! The staff here call me a pony because I like to stand on my hind legs for easier access to pets.
• Mental enrichment activities are a great way to entertain me and work my brain.
• I'm very active and will need positive outlets for my energy.
• High Energy: I can become easily frustrated if my energy and exercise needs are not met. I will need positive outlets and a calm environment to help me flourish.
• Barrier Reactivity: I can be frustrated meeting new dogs or people through barriers. I prefer to meet in a neutral, open setting, take things at my own pace, and will need to live in a low-traffic environment.

The type of home I'm looking for:

• I would flourish in an active home with plenty of outlets for my energy! Physical and Mental enrichment is a must!
• I need to be the only dog in the home.
• I must go to a home with a fenced in yard.
• It could be with you! Click here to learn about the adoption process.
