Oakley and her littermates came to our rescue as owner surrenders at the young age of just 5 weeks old. Her former owner had agreed to foster the litter of pups until space became available at SoCo, but that all changed in an instant when Scott Bennett went to administer the first round of de-wormer. The manner in which the pups were being kept was very unsanitary and had already began to take its toll on the litter, so Scott had the owner surrender the pups to him. The pups are now thriving at SoCo Rescue with lots of TLC from the SoCo staff.

 

The first thing you'll notice about Oakley is her sometimes cute, almost bat-like facial appearance. But she's not one to rely on her looks alone to find a new home, it'll be her super-friendly and playful spirit that'll gain her that. She's also the little mischievous pup among this litter, often being the first to engage her siblings into playing. But there's no doubt that this well-socialized pup will make a great addition into any home, even one with children if they're knowledgeable of how to handle a small pup.

 

Oakley has received her first round of "puppy" vaccinations, de-wormings and other care. She currently will need to receive additional vaccines and such, the next coming due on Sept 9th. She can be pre-adopted but not released to her new home until on or after Sept. 16th. Her adopter must agree to having Oakley spay once she reaches 6 months old and providing the rescue with verification of such. Oakley will require all of her basic training.
