With the right introduction and a knowledgeable home, he may also be able to live with cats.After everything Money has been through, we want his next chapter to be the one where he finally gets to be someone’s beloved family member!<br /><br />Okie Pet Rescue<br />okiepetrescue@gmail.comokiepetrescue.org<br />An application must be completed and approved after a comprehensive review.

Honey is a sweet girl being rehomed to save her from being killed by the other female dog in the home(this is something

I preach daily. It is so rare 2 females will get along especially with certain breeds.

Read more about Honey

We adopted her on 06/11/2020 she is 8 years old. She is most comfortable in the same room as people but prefers to be 6 feet away from them. When we get home she will run to us and get some pets but then prefers to be left alone. Most definitely not a cuddler but she will sleep in the same room as you. She used to be afraid of load noises and thunderstorms but she not anymore. She will not run away and is very good about sitting at the door and waiting to let her back in. So we have been able to let her roam the front yard while our pit bull is out in the fenced backyard.

I believe she will do well with another male dog.

Why adopt an adult dog in Tulsa

An adult dog's personality is fully formed, so the rescue can tell you how they are with people, other pets and busy households. Many have lived in foster homes and are already house-trained.

Grown dogs need less supervision than puppies and often know the basics, like sitting and walking on a leash, which suits people who work or have young children.
