Oakley

My story

Hi, I’m Oakley! I’m a shy girl who’s still learning to feel safe in a big, sometimes overwhelming world. I was surrendered because I wasn’t getting along with the other dog in my previous home, but with time, patience, and the right match, I might be able to live with a calm, respectful dog in the future. I really am confused why I’m here, and I for sure show it in my kennel. I shake, I hide in the corner, I may even growl. I promise I am not mean - I am just terrified! Can you blame me though? Going from a home to this place is scary! The unknown, the loud noises, all the new faces - it's a lot! I may not run up to you right away, but once I trust you, I’ll be the most loyal and loving companion you could ask for! I bond deeply with my people - I just need someone who’ll let me go at my own pace. I’d do best in a calm home, and I’d be okay with respectful, dog-savvy kids who understand I need gentle interactions and space when I’m feeling nervous. If you’re someone with a soft voice, a patient heart, and room in your life for a sweet soul who just wants to feel safe and loved, I’d love to meet you. I’m not the kind of dog who rushes into things—but I’m the kind who stays by your side once I know I belong! I hope to meet you soon! Primary Color: Tri Color Weight: 64.2 Age: 3yrs 0mths 0wks
