My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

I received Oakley from a friend last July as a birthday present. In September I was diagnosed with Kidney failure and started dialysis. My brother in law has been walking and taking care of him for me but he is mentally challenged and 66 years old I think Oakley is getting to be too much for him because he likes to run and play. I am not able to play with him and give him the attention he needs and neither is my brother in law. Oakley loves children. He loves to play in the yard with my grandchildren when they come visit. I really want him to go to a family that can cuddle and love on him because he is truly a lovable dog. Oakley has had his first major round of shots and rabies vaccine. I wasn’t able to make his follow up appointments because I was sick myself. I would keep him but it’s not fair that I’m sick and can’t let him enjoy outdoor walks.
He is crate trained but has had a few accidents inside due to the fact that I was too sick to walk him and is super hyper.
