Oakley

My story

Meet Oakley – Your Oversized Lap Dog with a Heart of Gold! At 2 years and 9 months old, Oakley is a 68-pound charmer with the manners of a gentleman and the soul of a snuggler. This handsome boy walks beautifully on leash, rides like a pro in the car, and has mastered the art of melting into your lap the moment you sit down—yes, all 68 pounds of him! Oakley is incredibly affectionate and loves being close to his people. He’ll often brush up against you like a cat, just to remind you he’s there and that he loves you. Treats are a surefire way to his heart—he’s food-motivated and takes them oh-so-gently from your hand. Bath time? Not his favorite, but he handles it like a true champ. That’s Oakley for you—gentle, patient, and always trying his best. While Oakley has had positive experiences with other dogs, he prefers not to share his food or toys, so he’s looking for a forever home where he can be the only dog. He has not shown resource guarding with people. No cats, please—he’s made it clear they’re not his cup of tea. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who’s equal parts goofball and cuddle bug, Oakley might just be your perfect match. He’s ready to be your best friend, your co-pilot, and your living room lap warmer. Come meet Oakley and see how quickly he’ll steal your heart! As always, we strongly recommend bringing any resident dogs to the shelter for a meet and greet with potential new family members to be sure it's a good match. If bringing a dog for a meet and greet, please bring proof of up to date rabies, bordetella, and DHPP vaccines. To meet your future pet, come to Guilford County Animal Services between 12 and 4 any day except Tuesday!
