Meet Ozzy

This little guy was rescued last November from the San Pedro Animal Shelter. The first picture is my Ozzy boy now and the second picture is from our first evening together at a pizza place.

His old owners surrendered him for being too destructive but he just needed to be inside and have a chewy treat. I named him Ozzy because he trashed stuff in the past like a rockstar and Ozzy Osbourne had recently passed. With a destructive label on his kennel card and his fear of people— he was the small dog there the longest. He was shaking and so scared but I wanted to rescue a dog who didn’t have much of a chance.

Ozzy now knows many tricks, listens well, and is a loyal buddy. We are enjoying our first summer together by going to the dog beach and spending lots of time outside.

If you’re reading this and thinking about getting a new best friend (my 16 year old best buddy Sid died in March of 2025) please consider adopting the dog who nobody else wants. Ozzy is a superstar now!!!

Ozzy looks a sweetie and charming in his little outfit! It’s wonderful that you took him in and that you have changed his behavior from being destructive to loving and trusting, it just takes a little patience. 😻
