Oakley is a sweet and independent 68lb terrier/pitbull mix with an estimated birthday of 12/16/2021. He's a smart boy who loves to be by your side and will follow you everywhere, like your own personal shadow. Oakley knows basic commands like "sit" and "get on your bed." His foster mom describes him as a real cuddle bug who enjoys cozying up next to you.
Oakley's favorite activity is going for walks, and he's a pro at leash manners, even understanding "slow down" when needed. While he tolerates other dogs, he would likely be happiest in a home as the sole canine companion, as he enjoys chasing cats and squirrels. Despite a difficult start in life, found as a stray and underweight with an injured ear, Oakley has a heart full of love to give and deserves a wonderful home.
Ideal Home
Oakley would do best in a home where he can be your constant companion. He enjoys being the only dog and would thrive in a home without cats or squirrels due to his prey drive.
Ongoing Health
Oakley is fully vaccinated, microchipped, and neutered. He was found as a stray in poor condition, but has since received all necessary veterinary care.
Training & Support
Oakley is potty trained. He is eager to please and learns quickly. Continued positive reinforcement for his walks and interactions with other animals will help him continue to be a well-adjusted companion.
