New Kid is estimated to be 3-4 years old. He was found wandering as a stray near OKC and was being cared for by residents of a neighborhood where he was suspected of being dumped there. He was in the area for several weeks when they contacted GPMR for assistance. New Kid is well-behaved; he doesn't jump up on people, doesn't counter-surf, and knows basic commands. New Kid was adopted but is being rehomed because he's not getting along with the cat in the home and has gotten into scuffles with the older resident dog. We are looking for a home for New Kid, where he is the only pet. He generally does OK with other animals, but if there's any food around (or even something he thinks is food), his street dog instincts kick in, and this is where his issues with other animals occur. He is wonderful with people, but due to the food issue, we feel he'd be better in a home with no small children.
New Kid is healthy; the only thing he has seen the vet for is his glands needing to be expressed, so that will be a regular visit every 1-2 months. Overall, he does great at the vet, but he doesn't like having his nails trimmed (like most Mastiffs!) He's heartworm negative and has been on monthly prevention. NEW KID would do best in a home where someone is home most of the day. He has some separation anxiety, but he is crate trained, and that is best to keep him from chewing things he's not supposed to. He also has storm anxiety, and meds help with this a lot. He is such a sweet boy, and looking for an owner who won't mind a velcro Mastiff. He loves being doted on and will be your best bud!
GPMR does not have a shelter. All of our dogs are kept in loving foster homes. We must have a completed adoption application on file before meeting any of our mastiffs.
GPMR adopts to the states of Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, Arkansas, Missouri, Louisiana and parts of Colorado.
!!!Any mastiffs being adopted out of the state of Oklahoma require a health certificate to be paid for by the adopter!!!
