25-03-26 Orthello is an active Old English Sheepdog who has come into our care from a breeder in search of a new start. He is full of life and personality, enjoying lots of fuss and actively seeking out attention. He is happy to take treats from our hands and is already showing himself to be a friendly and affectionate boy.

Orthello gets on wonderfully with other dogs, so he would be happy to share his home with canine companions. He is also confident enough that he could live as the only dog, as long as his adopters are around much of the time to keep him company and meet his need for interaction.

As Orthello has never lived in a home before, he will need guidance with house training, lead training, and all the basics of home life. He is already making a good start with lead walking and is doing well, so once settled, he would enjoy one or two walks around the local area to help build his confidence and routine.

Orthello could share his home with dog-savvy teenagers who understand that he will need a gentle introduction to the home and his own space to settle in. He will need an active home where he can burn off his energy and stay busy, as he clearly enjoys being on the go and involved in daily life.

Orthello has arrived with bilateral retained upper canines, which will need to be addressed with his new vets, at the time of his neutering when he is old enough.

He is a confident, loving boy with a fun and lively nature, and he will make a fantastic companion for a home that can match his energy and enthusiasm.

We ask that puppies are neutered at the appropriate age and attend training sessions to help them grow into happy, well-behaved dogs.

Orthello has been given the Gift of Life by Paula Elliott
