Meet Oakley
This handsome young dog is Oakley. We rescued Oakley from a high kill shelter. Like so many other dogs, Oakley and his sister Opal, were in serious danger of being euthanized, until we could get them to the safety of our shelter.
Once they arrived, we realized that both puppies were visually impaired and completely terrified. Since arriving, Oakley has made great progress and he's ready to find his forever home. Oakley is a 1 1/2 years old terrier/cattle dog mix. He's small in stature, with a gorgeous black and white coat. We think Oakley can see shadows. A special volunteer has been working with him and Oakley loves his person. He's learned to trust. He's learned to walk on a leash and he enjoys being outside, especially on a sunny day where he can feel the sun's warmth. Because of his fears, Oakley will need to be the only pet in a home, with no children. Oakley is going to thrive away from the shelter. He'll do best in a quiet home with people he trusts. This sweet dog has been through so many scary things in his life, he just needs a second chance to know what love and kindness are. A family who can show him will be richly rewarded.
