Meet Horton!
Horton (A559448) is one of our swap dogs. Every once in a while, in conjunction with other agencies, we swap dogs that have been struggling at our shelter for a dog at another shelter. Sometimes the change of environment and change of population helps get these dogs adopted. We swapped about four dogs with our friends at the Lake County Animal Shelter, and Horton was one of them.
He’s 8 years old, but still pretty energetic and strong. Horton is affectionate, but on his own terms. He is definitely treat-motivated, and when offered, he will snatch up treats like a piranha! He will benefit from some consistency and some light training, as he was at the Lake County Shelter for over a year, and may not remember what it was like to live in a home. And during the rest of November, all senior dogs, like Horton, will have their adoption fees waived. Let’s get Horton home for the holidays!
Orange County Animal Services is located at 2769 Conroy Road in Orlando, near the Mall at Millenia. The shelter is open 10 a.m.-6 p.m. every day except Wednesday, when it’s open 2-6 p.m. For more information, please call 407-836-3111 or visit ocnetpets.com.
