Ozigbo is the life of the party, and he'll get along great with your cats and dogs. He is vaccinated.

Here's what Ozigbo's friends at Hands, Hearts and Paws think of him:

He is a sweet puppy who is learning the ropes of being in a home. He gets to play with the other dogs in his foster home, and ignores the cat. He's doing great at the pottying outside business, but he's still a baby, so he will have accidents. He is great at passing out on your lap when he's finally wound down for the day
