Skeeter - Australian Shepherd and Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Valley Park, Oklahoma

Skeeter was brought to us as a feral puppy. The mom, a stray Australian Shepherd, gave birth in the woods near a ranch; as the puppies aged and were able to travel some, she started bringing them up to the ranch where some nice people had been feeding her. They slowly caught all the puppies, and the litter came into our care here at OPR. The mom, who is very friendly has been spayed and has found a home.
Skeeter is SUPER sweet and lovable. He is still very shy but has learned quickly how wonderful people can be.
