About

Meet OAKLEY

Oakley (A137641) is a 1-year-old Hound who weighed 62.3 pounds on intake! 02/27/25 This handsome (and talkative) young man is Oakley! Oakley was surrendered to the shelter because his owner was going through some life changes that prevented them from being able to care for him. In his prior home, he was said to do well with babies, children, and adults. He was known to bark at strangers but warms up quickly. Oakley was also said to get along with other dogs but was a bit too curious of cats in the past. He may do best without feline housemates. Please ensure you are always making appropriate introductions with any and all new friends. Oakley was also said to be kennel-trained and housebroken! He is a young dog and would benefit from attending a basic obedience class with a certified trainer. He was known to jump on people, be a chewer, and to get into the trash if unsupervised. It was also noted that Oakley had been hit by a car a couple of months ago, which resulted in a fractured jaw. He is doing well but his vet at the time advised soft food and restricting chewing on toys for up to 6 months after the accident. He was seen by our shelter vet for his neuter, and she said his jaw is looking great! However, she did find that Oakley is having some tummy issues, resulting from giardia. He has been put on a medication regiment to help clear this up. He is a young pup looking for his second chance and home, if you are interested in meeting him, please let us know!
