My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Burch — the comeback kid with the heart of a golden retriever and the enthusiasm of a slightly-too-caffeinated toddler.
Once upon a time, this boy was on the euthanasia list… and now he’s out here living his best life: learning manners, snuggling hard, and joyfully committing minor felonies against stuffed toys (he swears there *must* be treasure inside).
Burch is technically a 1-year-old, but spiritually? He’s a “just turned 1” kind of guy. He has that young-dog zest for life and occasionally gets a little mouthy when he’s really having fun, but it’s light, manageable, and easily redirected. A stuffed toy, however, in his presence has the same lifespan as a mayfly… but hey, that’s what Nylabones are for. He LOVES his Nylabones and Bullymake food-dispenser chew toys. I give him part of his meals in those to channel that energy into focused work. He has excellent long-form focus, and treat/food puzzle toys are fantastic for him.
Once he trusts you, he transforms from “thoughtful observer” to “loyal personal space heater.” He’ll curl up for snuggles, melt into you for pets, and follow you like he’s your emotional support shadow. He likes approaching people at his own pace, and once he gives you that first gentle sniff? The love story begins.
Burch is a total social butterfly with other dogs—especially younger pups who can match his wrestlemania energy. His current foster sister (8 months old) is his bestie, and together they host daily chaos festivals featuring tug-of-war, zoomies, and “who can body slam the fence or couch more poetically.”
Despite his playful side, he’s also a champion chill-er. Sunbathing? 10/10. Watching the world pass by from a cozy window? Peak serenity. Evening TV time? He’ll happily relax on his “place” with a chew while you binge your shows.
**Training? This man is educated.** A proud alum of Wright Way Canine, he has learned and is working on mastering: • Place • Ready/eye contact • Sit & Down • One-Step • Recall • Leash manners • My favorite- “Mind your business” - Polite ignoring of distractions (including other dogs!)
He comes with a free transfer lesson for his new family and boarding/daycare/grooming in a place that he is already familiar with because the Wright Way staff adore him.
Burch is looking for a patient, loving home that will keep building his confidence, give him structure, let him be silly, and appreciate his tender little soul. He

Adoption Process
We have an open adoption policy, so there is no application or interview process. We simply ask that you meet the pet in person before adoption. We have adoption specialists that will help you find the right pet for your family.
Adoption Center
The Adoption Center is located at 7500 N. Western Ave, Oklahoma City, OK 73116. Our Adoption Center is a totally new concept in Oklahoma City where dogs have comfortable, expanded kennels and cats stay in “living rooms” with furniture and toys.
Pets by Appointment
Some amazing dogs get stressed out in a kennel environment like our Adoption Center, and much prefer staying at their foster home until they find their new family. If you see a dog on our website that says “E-Mail to Meet Me” that means that this furry friend is just a click away from getting a ride to the Adoption Center to meet you in person.
Adoption Fees
Adult dogs are $150 to adopt, puppies are $200 to adopt, adult cats are $75 to adopt and kittens are $95 to adopt. All of our pets are microchipped, spayed or neutered, treated with all age-appropriate vaccinations and flea, tick, and heartworm preventative prior to being cleared for adoption, so we put a lot of effort and monetary investment into each of our animals including a two-week quarantine period in a foster home. These adoption fees help cover the costs of our animals’ health and well-being!
