My story

Ozzy joined The Foster Dog House from a rural NC shelter after being found as a stray and never reclaimed. It seems he may have been on the run for a bit as he's still got some weight to gain back. Typical for the breed, Ozzy rarely stops moving so he will need a home able to provide plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. He thrives with long walks/hikes and brain games. He's a tall & strong German Shorthaired Pointer (~50lbs) who likely needs a 6ft fence to be safe. He lets you know where all the birds and squirrels are. He can be stubborn but is willing to learn. He does tire out and loves to nap ON his humans. He seems housebroken, walks well on a leash, and does sleep in his crate. Ozzy does okay with other dogs given ample time to be introduced slowly. He's dog neutral when walking or in a brewery setting but he does not care for dogs in his face therefore we're ideally looking for a home where he is the only dog. Ozzy is heartworm negative, UTD on vaccines, and neutered & microchipped. If you'd be interested in fostering/fostering to adopt/adopting please check out our website for the appropriate application or email us for more information. Located in Charlotte, NC!

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Ozzy, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
