Rescue Me: Orlando Is A Dog With A Big Brain And A Big Heart

FREDERICKSBURG, VA — Orlando came to the Fredericksburg SPCA from Florida after Hurricane Ian. Now, this 3-year-old dog is ready to find his forever home.

Orlando is housebroken, laid-back, and well-behaved. All he needs is a family to give him a chance.

Since coming to Virginia, Orlando has enjoyed the different seasons the area has to offer.

"He enjoyed all the spoils of autumn, sniffing his way up and down nature paths, meeting people and dogs at Animal Rescue Festival, and even running in the Turkey Trot," the Fredericksburg SPCA said. "He's now looking towards enjoying the holidays in his foster home and helped pick out their Christmas tree at a farm."

Orlando already knows commands like "sit," and "no." His foster family said he is very treat motivated, so teaching him something new should be no problem.

"Orlando is generally just one laid-back dude, but he enjoys a good tug-o-war with a rope toy," the SPCA said. "This big boy has a big brain and a big heart."
