❤️ Personality, Breed Information & Midnight Oreo's Story
Midnight Oreo has already overcome more in his short life than most dogs ever will.
As a young puppy, he was abandoned and left to survive on his own. Without a family to protect him, he faced hunger, uncertainty, and the dangers of life on the streets. Thankfully, kind rescuers found him and gave him the care he desperately needed.
Shortly after entering rescue, Midnight Oreo was diagnosed with canine distemper, a devastating disease that many puppies don't survive. Thanks to dedicated veterinary care, proper treatment, and his incredible fighting spirit, Midnight Oreo beat the odds. Today, he is a proud distemper survivor who is healthy, happy, and ready to find the loving family he has always deserved.
You would never guess everything this little guy has been through. Midnight Oreo is playful, affectionate, and full of puppy enthusiasm. He loves toys, enjoys exploring new places, and is always excited to spend time with people. After a day of playing, he's happiest curled up beside you, soaking up all the love and attention he can get.
As a Black Labrador Retriever / Terrier Mix, Midnight Oreo is expected to grow into an intelligent, loyal, and active companion. Labrador Retrievers are known for their friendly, eager-to-please personalities, while Terriers add confidence, curiosity, and a playful spirit. Together, these breeds create a wonderful family companion who enjoys both adventures and quiet time with the people he loves.
Midnight Oreo would thrive in a home that offers:
Plenty of love and companionship
Daily walks and age-appropriate exercise
Positive reinforcement training
Interactive toys and mental enrichment
Continued socialization with people and other dogs
A consistent daily routine
A safe indoor home where he's treated as a beloved member of the family
A lifetime of love, patience, and commitment
Midnight Oreo has already proven how strong and resilient he is. Now he's ready for the easy part—a family to love and a home where he'll never have to fight for another chance again.
Training, Adjustment & What to Expect
Midnight Oreo is still a young puppy and is learning about the world every day. His new family should expect normal puppy behaviors, including chewing, teething, house-training, and lots of curiosity.
Please remember the 3-3-3 Rule:
3 Days to decompress and begin feeling safe
3 Weeks to learn your household routine
3 Months to fully settle into family life
Midnight Oreo is eager to learn and will thrive with patient, positive reinforcement training.
His new family should continue providing:
Positive reinforcement training
House-training and consistent routines
Daily exercise appropriate for his age
Continued socialization
Mental enrichment through toys and games
Plenty of love, patience, and encouragement
With guidance and consistency, Midnight Oreo will grow into a confident, well-mannered companion who will reward his family with endless loyalty and affection.
Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care
Bringing home a puppy is a lifelong commitment that includes proper veterinary care, training, exercise, and companionship.
As part of responsible pet ownership, Midnight Oreo will need:
Routine veterinary wellness examinations
Completion of any remaining vaccinations as recommended by your veterinarian
Neutering when age-appropriate
Monthly flea, tick, heartworm, and parasite prevention
A balanced, high-quality diet to support healthy growth
Daily exercise and mental enrichment
Continued obedience training and socialization
A safe, loving indoor home where he is treated as a cherished member of the family
As a distemper survivor, we recommend discussing his medical history with your veterinarian during his first wellness visit. Most survivors go on to live happy, fulfilling lives, and routine veterinary care will help ensure Midnight Oreo continues to thrive.
