Ozzie

Ozzie is a very affectionate, playful, and lively young boy with a heart full of love. He is eager to learn, loves to please, and enjoys his treats and toys – especially snuffle mats and balls. He takes treats gently and is always up for a little fun or a cuddle on the sofa.

Ozzie is fully house-trained and now has a brilliant “sit” and “wait” on command, although he prefers a walk on his lead to using the garden. He adores his walks, zoomies included, and greets other dogs calmly and politely, no matter their size.

Ozzie is around 4–6 years old and, while he has a lively personality, he is learning self-control and routines. He can occasionally get unsettled by new people entering a room or by someone approaching on a walk, so a patient, confident handler is important. Announcing yourself and offering a treat can help him feel safe and happy.

Recently, Ozzie received a diagnosis of a progressive eye condition. He is expected to become fully blind within the next 18 months. Despite this, his spirit is strong, and he still has so much love to give. He is looking for a patient and understanding home, ideally with someone experienced with blind or sight-impaired dogs, or someone willing to learn and give him the time and support he needs.

Ozzie is full of energy, charm, and personality, and with the right guidance and reassurance, he will be a loyal, joyful, and endlessly loving companion.

Could you be the person to help Ozzie feel safe, happy, and cherished as he navigates life with sight loss?
