Arlington Pet of the Week: Oshie

This week’s Arlington Pet of the Week is Oshie, a 4-year-old rescue who cheered for the Washington Capitals with her family during the Stanley Cup Final last week.

Here’s what Oshie’s owner, Heather, had to say about her:

This is Oshie! Yes, she is named after our beloved Washington Capitals player, T.J. Oshie. Oshie is a 4 year old, 25 pound ball of energy. We adopted her from Lucky Dog Rescue last year. She loves Arlington and the Washington Capitals. She enjoys long walks, hiking, playing fetch, playing with other dogs, snuggling and barking at the mailman. She hates the vacuum cleaner and the Pittsburg Penguins. She also enjoys chasing her kitty sister and hopes one day they will be friends. But by far, her favorite thing to do is to snuggle up on a family member’s lap to watch Capitals games!

We couldn’t be happier with our newest addition to our family. Shout out to Lucky Dog for helping us find such a wonderful dog.
