Hello world, I am a puppy! I am an owner surrender from Nash county - came into the rescue with my 2 siblings.

Orion is a cuddly-as-heck little fuzzy bear with a lot of affection and a BIG voice. He may be part husky-- only a DNA test will tell.

We think he is about 3 months old (as of 2/11/2026) and roughly 15-20lbs. He will be a big boy when grown.
