Meet Osiris 🖤🤍
Osiris is about a year and a half old, and while we can only guess at his breed mix, we’re thinking Cattle Dog x Terrier… with a few suspicious spots that look an awful lot like Dalmatian flair. Whatever the mix, he’s a truly unique and handsome guy.
Osiris was adopted from us as a 5-month-old puppy and spent his first year in a home where he was loved and cared for. Unfortunately, when his family found out they were expecting a human baby, they came to the conclusion Osiris was no longer a good fit for their situation. There’s no blame being placed—but it’s important to know that his return had nothing to do with behavior issues or being bad with kids. He simply wasn’t given the chance. And that part has been the most confusing for him.
Now back at the shelter, Osiris is still adjusting. The shelter environment can be overwhelming, and because of that, he can be unsure of strangers at first and may come off a little defensive during initial meet-and-greets. But give him a little time (and maybe a few treats—those definitely help), and you’ll quickly see his true self shine through. Once he feels safe, he’s incredibly sweet, affectionate, and eager to connect.
Osiris is:
- House trained
- Crate trained
- Good with other dogs and cats
- Familiar with basic commands
He’s a good boy who just needs patience, understanding, and someone willing to let him settle in at his own pace. We truly believe that in the right home, Osiris will blossom into a loyal, loving companion.
All he’s asking for now is a chance—the kind he never got before. 💙
