Oakley is a sweet, smart, and affectionate young collie mix who quickly won over everyone he met during his time in foster care. He is truly a people dog—he loves being close to his humans, soaking up attention, and being part of whatever is happening around him.
Oakley appears to be house-trained and had zero accidents indoors, clearly understanding that potty time happens outside. He is energetic and athletic, making him a fantastic match for an active person or family. During his foster stay, Oakley happily joined daily 5-mile runs and long hikes—and still had energy to spare!
Friendly and outgoing, Oakley loves meeting new people and thrives on playtime. Frisbee is a favorite, and impressively, he already knows to bring it back. He’s a quick learner who genuinely wants to please and is eager to learn new things.
Oakley did very well with crate time and would even go into his crate on his own to relax. More than anything, he craves companionship and does best when he’s included in daily life with his people.
Oakley would make an incredible adventure buddy and a deeply loving companion for a home ready to give him the activity, affection, and connection he deserves. His foster family misses him already—and knows he’s going to make someone very lucky. 🐾💙
