Oakley is a lab cattle dog mix about a year old with short legs and huge paws. He has the most stunning bright blue eyes ever. Because of his size and puppy energy he would do best with a confident dog friend ideally a female who can tolerate an oversize puppy who just wants to play and have fun.
Oakley would definitely do best in a home with other dogs that he can play with I don’t think he should be an only dog. Oakley loves kids, he did so well around a 5 and 8 year old. He got loved on by them and was more than happy with that. He was so calm when they were running around screaming jumping and even laying all over him. He would do great with any kid he is truly the calmest and sweetest boy! He would not be best fit for a home with cats while he was respectful and wanted to play his size and enthusiasm could be too much for a cat.

Despite his playful side, Oakley knows how to chill. He’s not a big barker can relax and hang out making him a potential apartment candidate with an active family committed to meeting his exercise needs. He does so great on a leash and stays next to you the whole time. A home with the yard would be a dream for him, but he’d be happy as long as he gets daily activity, playtime,enrichment and love.

Oakley loves treats and toys especially squeaky toys the noisier the better, he’s an affectionate goofy loving puppy the kind of dog that steals hearts without even trying.

Why everyone falls in love with Oakley:
Big puppy energy with even bigger heart
Social sweet and obsessed with people
Lives for toys and attention
Super playful, but also knows how to chill

Oakley Is truly something special, a dog who brings laughter, love and joy wherever he goes he’s ready to be someone’s best friend, adventure, buddy, and couch companion all in one
