š¾ Meet Obi ā A Big Dog with an Even Bigger Heart š¾
Obi is a 4-year-old, 85-pound brindle Boxer-Bull mix with a heart of gold and a personality you wonāt forget. This sweet, energetic pup is looking for a dedicated foster home while his owner is away. Heās currently located in Savannah, GA, and transportation is available within a 6-hour radius (with some flexibility). If youāre an experienced dog lover ready to offer structure, consistency, and plenty of loveāObi might just be your perfect match!
š§” Loyal, Affectionate, and Full of Personality
Obi is all about his people. He loves being involved in everything you do and shows affection through tail wags, loyalty, and sometimes enthusiastic licks! He prefers to be by your side and will happily lie next to you for petsābut heās not overly clingy. Once he’s had enough attention, heās content to nap on the floor nearby. He can be anxious around new people and places but settles quickly once heās familiar and looks to his trusted person for cues.
š¾ Playful, Smart & Ready to Learn
Obi thrives with structure and clear rules. Heās highly food-motivated, crate trained, and housebroken. He knows how to walk beautifully on a leash with a prong collar and responds well to a quick correction or āNo.ā Heās also shock-collar trained and understands boundaries when theyāre consistently reinforced. Obi loves games like keep-away, roughhousing, and walks. Heās medium energy overallāhappy to play as long as you will but also ready to relax when the fun is over.
š« A Few Quirks to Know
Obi is not a fit for homes with small dogs, cats, or young children (heās a big guy and may accidentally knock over little ones). He may be okay with female dogs, but heās not a fan of dominant males and needs careful introductions. He responds well to a structured process for meeting new peopleāespecially menāand once heās familiar, heās a big softie.
Heās also a bit of a counter-surfer and toy destroyerāso Tuff toys and putting food out of reach are musts! But heās not aggressive or destructive otherwise.
ā Obiās Ideal Foster Home
Obi would do best in a calm, experienced home with structure and routine. Heāll need a foster who can provide regular walks, play, and patient introductions to new experiences. A fenced yard would be a bonus, as Obi enjoys time outside and has great recall within secure areas.
This big-hearted boy is looking for someone to step up and help him through this transition while his person is away. He may need a little time to adjust, but once he bonds, Obi is all in.
If youāre ready to make a life-changing difference for Obi, weād love to hear from you!
