11. Ozzie Osbourne
Meet Ozzie Osbourne! ❤️
Ozzie is a sweet, lovable guy with a big personality, lots of energy, and a heart full of love! He gets along wonderfully with cats, does great with children and smaller dogs, and can be a little shy around dogs bigger than he is. With proper introductions and a little patience, he has so much potential to be a wonderful companion.
Read more about Ozzie Osbourne
Ozzie already knows some basic training, including sit and leave it, and he’s always happy to show off his good manners—especially when snacks are involved! He loves treats, fruits, and veggies, and he’s definitely not one to turn down a tasty reward. When it’s time for fun, Ozzie enjoys toys, playing fetch, bath time, car rides, and trips to the water. This energetic boy would love a family who can keep him busy with playtime, adventures, and continued training.
Ozzie will need time, patience, and understanding as he adjusts to his new home. Unfortunately, his previous home left him crated for long periods, and he no longer views a crate as the safe, comfortable space it should be. He’ll need a family willing to work with him at his own pace, help him build confidence, and show him that he can feel safe and secure again. A little patience will go a long way with this boy!
Ozzie has so much love to give and deserves a home that understands that settling in takes time. If you’re looking for an energetic, treat-loving companion to share adventures with and help blossom into his best self, Ozzie Osbourne might just be your guy! ❤️

25. Hobo
Hobo has been home fostered several times since arriving at Rescue Ranch as a 3 month old puppy. He is now 8 months old and reaching for adolescence. His foster Mom describes him this way:
Sweet tempered and gentle
No visible prey drive
Dog friendly and non-reactive
Devoted and affectionate
Cooperative with grooming
Enjoys hugs and belly rubs
Low Moderate energy; more into sniffer walks than zoomies
Trained to use a dog door
Travels willingly in a car
Sleeps through the night
Rarely barks
Hobo also comes with some quirks identified by his foster Mom:
Read more about Hobo
timid with strangers; fearful with men but never aggressive
bonds quickly with most ladies
startles when in unfamiliar or busy/noisy areas
We believe Hobo's quirks are primarily puppy behavior and will moderate as he grows more experienced and confident in a stable and loving home. Hobo prefers to be with his people above everything else, including playing with his dog pals. If you are looking for a devoted companion who enjoys your company on couch or in an adventure visit him at the Rescue Ranch or arrange a meeting with his foster mom in Ashland.

Adopting a dog with children in Medford
Bring the whole family to meet the dog before you adopt, and ask the rescue how the dog behaves around children your kids' ages.
Teach children to let the dog come to them, to stroke gently, and to leave the dog alone while it's eating or sleeping. Give the dog a bed or crate of their own to retreat to, and always supervise young children with a new dog.
Relaxed adult dogs are often a better match for young children than puppies, which jump up, nip and chew while they learn.
