Meet Osiris - The Goofy, Gentle Watcher
Osiris is a house‑trained sweetheart with a silly streak and a whole lot of potential. He is a 5 year old Australian Shepherd Mix who weighs 61 lbs. He tolerates the crate when needed, though it's not his favorite place, and he much prefers lounging on the couch where he can keep an eye on the world outside. Whether he's watching wildlife through the window or sitting calmly in the yard taking everything in, he's a quiet observer at heart. Inside, though, he absolutely gets the zoomies. He loves playing with his brother, Icarus, and his goofy, playful personality shines through once he's comfortable. His play style can be a bit mouthy, so someone who understands dog body language will set him up for success. He's also known to steal a sock or two just to show off his mischievous charm.
Osiris enjoys walks, toys, car rides, and a good bone to chew on. He walks nicely on leash-unless he spots a critter, in which case his herding instincts kick in. Because he startles easily and has typical herding‑breed behaviors, he'll do best in an adults‑only home or one familiar with the breed and comfortable with older, calmer kids (around 12+).
He's still learning what it means to be truly loved by a human, so an experienced dog owner would be ideal to help him continue building confidence and becoming the best version of himself. He can get a little jealous when he's getting affection and another dog tries to join in, but with guidance and structure, he'll thrive.
Osiris is the goofiest boy-silly, playful, affectionate, and full of promise. With the right person, he's going to make an incredible companion.
His minimum adoption fee is $300 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents.
He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.
