My story

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

Meet Oatie!
Our happy-go-lucky speed racer with a heart full of sunshine!

Oatie got his name after we found him curled up in a pile of hay in the middle of a field. It was clear he’d been dumped, but you’d never guess that from his joyful spirit. This little guy greets every day like it’s the best day ever—full of zoomies, wiggles, and pure happiness.

You might wonder what the catch is… but we haven’t found one. Yes, he’s got lots of energy, but who wouldn’t when life finally feels this good?

Oatie does great with other dogs who can match his playful, fast-paced style, and he’d love a home with kids 12+ who can run, play, and keep up with him.

If you’re looking for a fun, upbeat companion who brings joy everywhere he goes, Oatie might be your perfect match! 🐾💛
