Jindo puppies and dogs in Tulsa, Oklahoma

Murphy came to us as a stray. We're not sure how someone could be missing a dog like him! Murph is a sweetheart who is friendly once he gets to know you (kids are unknown at the moment), and has shown us that he can get along with female dogs (further testing with male dogs). Murph walks great on leash, appears to like truck rides, does awesome for baths, and keeps a fairly clean kennel. He isn't picky about his food, though he is a treat snob. Murph is neutered, microchipped, current on shots, heartworm negative, and current on flea/tick/heart worm preventions.

👻🖤 Phantom: The World's Friendliest Ghost 🖤👻 Don't let the name fool you—this Phantom isn't here to haunt your house. He's here to haunt your personal space with relentless requests for pets, cuddles, and quality time. Somewhere along the way, Phantom became convinced that humans exist for one purpose and one purpose only: to adore him. And honestly? He's not entirely wrong. I mean, have you looked at him? The evidence is pretty compelling. He looks like a bear cub, and he's somehow even softer than he appears. This handsome boy is exceptionally sweet, affectionate, and happiest when he's soaking up attention from his favorite people. He's the kind of dog who greets each day with a positive attitude, a happy heart, and the firm belief that every lap is a lap dog lap if you try hard enough. 📍 Location: Tulsa, OK -Adopters will need to come pick up their new furry family member themselves. Apply at: https://www.pyrpawsandfluffytailsrescue.com/adoption-app Phantom is a 1.5-year-old, 55lb male Chow Chow who found himself needing rescue after landing in a shelter. With Phantom, you're getting maximum fluff, maximum teddy bear energy, and maximum cuddle potential... without needing to deadlift 100 pounds of dog into your car or lose circulation in your legs when he decides your lap is the perfect place for a nap. Phantom is basically the compact edition of a bear. All the luxurious fluff. All the snuggles. All the charm. Half the size. It's really a remarkably efficient design. Honestly, do we even need to keep talking about him? He's a living stuffed animal with legs. The sales pitch is practically writing itself. Now, before you start picturing Phantom spending his weekends hosting puppy playdates and joining a neighborhood dog kickball league, let's discuss his social calendar. Phantom is what we like to call "selectively social." He generally ignores other dogs and has absolutely no interest in discussing their feelings, exchanging friendship bracelets, or participating in group activities. If another dog gets a little too invested in becoming his best friend, Phantom may politely inform them that their application has been denied. His personal bubble is important to him, and he expects others to respect it. As for cats? We haven't tested that theory, but given Phantom's breed and personality, we'd prefer not to conduct the experiment. He would likely be happiest in a cat-free kingdom where he can focus on the things that matter most: being admired and collecting stuffed animals. He would likely be happiest in a cat-free kingdom where he can focus on the things that matter most: being admired and collecting stuffed animals, instead of being stared down by the only creature on earth that might be more judgmental than he is. We have no idea who would win that battle, but we're fairly certain the rest of the household would lose. Children are also somewhat of a mystery since he hasn't spent time around them in foster care. We think he would do best with older, dog-savvy kids who understand that fluffy does not automatically mean "living stuffed animal available for unlimited handling." Now, when it comes to meeting new people? Phantom missed the memo that he was supposed to be reserved and antisocial. In fact, apparently he shredded that memo. New people are simply future friends who haven't started petting him yet. He happily greets visitors, occasionally forgets his manners when excitement takes over, and would very much like everyone to admire his extensive collection of plush squeaky toys. In Phantom's mind, every guest should immediately stop what they're doing, admire his toys, tell him he's handsome, and provide a reasonable amount of belly rubs. As for energy level, Phantom sits comfortably in the middle. He's not training for a marathon, but he's also not planning to spend 23 hours a day impersonating a decorative throw pillow. We'd call him a solid 5 out of 10. He's perfectly happy joining you for activities, but he also appreciates the fine art of relaxing. One activity he takes very seriously? Car rides. Phantom is absolutely convinced that every vehicle exists for his personal enjoyment. Need to run errands? Fantastic. Going to the bank? Even better. The bank tellers already know him and regularly provide Milk-Bones, which has only reinforced his belief that he is a local celebrity. He loves looking out the windows, soaking up the sights, and occasionally forgetting that the driver's lap is not technically an approved seating location. His future family will definitely want a doggy seatbelt, because Phantom's preferred method of road-tripping is "as close to my human as physically possible." When it comes to walks, Phantom is surprisingly polite. He doesn't spend his time dragging you down the sidewalk like a sled dog. He strolls along nicely and generally has excellent leash manners. Adventure-wise, Phantom's ideal day looks less like scaling mountains and more like collecting admirers. He'd happily accompany you on walks, outings, road trips, and pet-friendly adventures. His only request is that strange dogs respect his personal bubble. Strange humans? Those are just future friends who haven't started petting him yet. One thing Phantom does not have time for is unnecessary drama. Vacuums? Fine. Thunderstorms? Fine. Strange noises? Fine. His own farts? Presumably also fine. Unlike some dogs who react to every inconvenience as if the world is ending, Phantom is refreshingly stable and sensible. Well... except when water is involved. Phantom LOVES water. Need a dog who enjoys splashing in kiddie pools? Phantom. A dog who happily gets groomed? Phantom. A dog who treats every water bowl like a miniature water park attraction? Also Phantom. If it involves water, there's a very good chance Phantom has already stuck at least one paw in it. And then we need to discuss his true passion in life. Toys. Phantom is a full-fledged toy enthusiast. Collector. Connoisseur. Hobbyist. If there were a Homeowners Association for stuffed animals, Phantom would probably be president. He loves carrying them around, showing them off, and generally making sure everyone knows exactly which toy is his favorite that day. As for fetch? Well... Phantom has made some modifications to the traditional rules. He'll chase the ball. He'll pounce on the ball. He'll toss the ball into the air. He'll bounce around the yard entertaining himself with the ball. What he will not do is bring it back to you. Frankly, Phantom sees no reason to involve you in a perfectly functional one-dog game. He's an independent thinker like that. Now, while Phantom may look like a giant stuffed animal that would be perfectly content decorating your living room, he does come with a few operating instructions. First, let's discuss housing requirements. Phantom would do best with a securely fenced yard. As for training, Phantom has clearly paid attention during his educational career. He knows Sit, Shake, Lay Down, No, Off, Walk, and perhaps most importantly, Car Ride. He's also fully potty trained and has maintained an excellent record in his foster home. No accidents. No nonsense. Just a gentleman conducting his bathroom business appropriately. Now let's discuss crates. Phantom views crates the same way most people view mandatory Monday morning meetings. Will he do it? Sure. Is it his preference? Absolutely not. If you toss a high-value treat inside, he'll reluctantly accept the arrangement. Once inside, he settles just fine. But given the choice, Phantom would strongly prefer free roam privileges where he can monitor neighborhood activities from a window and strategically position himself near the nearest air conditioning vent. At night he may start out in your bedroom, but eventually you'll find him stretched across cool bathroom tile or directly beneath a vent enjoying what can only be described as luxury spa-level airflow. His fluffy coat is magnificent, but even Phantom acknowledges that carrying around an entire polar bear's worth of fur gets warm sometimes. As for barking, he's actually fairly quiet. He isn't interested in providing a running commentary on every leaf that blows past the window. He reserves his voice for situations that he personally finds suspicious. Interestingly, his bark is a bit higher pitched than you'd expect from a dog that resembles a small bear. When his foster family leaves, Phantom enjoys free-roaming part of the house. So here's the deal. If you've made it this far and somehow haven't fallen completely in love with Phantom, we honestly don't know what else to tell you. Think you might be his people? Then stop aggressively staring at his photos and fill out an adoption application already: https://www.pyrpawsandfluffytailsrescue.com/adoption-app Once your application is submitted, we'll send it to Phantom's foster family for review. As with all of our dogs, multiple applications may be received, and his foster family will choose the home they feel is the best match for him. And yes, you'll need to pick him up in Tulsa, Oklahoma. We know. It's a road trip. But Phantom would like to remind you that he is, in fact, a Chow Chow teddy bear who rides politely in the car and accepts admiration from strangers. Some opportunities are worth a few hours behind the wheel.
