My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

OKIE

AVAILABLE FOR: Adoption

BORN: February 2019

SEX: Male

BREED: Catahoula Leopard Dog/Pit Bull Terrier Mix

WEIGHT: 54 lbs.

MARL ARRIVAL: Okie was brought to MARL as a stray.

BACKGROUND: Meet Okie! Okie is one of those dogs who wants nothing more than to have a little fun and burn a few calories! Active and energetic, he always wants to be on the go—playtime and long walks are his activities of choice! Though he enjoys being out and about, Okie also loves to be surrounded by his favorite people and considers anyone who has a second to spend with him a friend. This outgoing guy is looking for an adopter who can meet his energy needs while giving him the training he needs to become his best self, could it be you?

COMPATIBILITY: Based on our evaluation, we feel that Okie has the potential to get along with other dogs. Okie would do best in a home without cats and with children 13 years or older.

MEDICAL NEEDS: Okie has tested positive for Heartworm Disease, and is available for foster/foster to adopt while he goes through his treatment. During this time, Okie will need to be kept on exercise restriction. He will also need to be brought to one of MARL's approved veterinarians for check ups and treatment (approximately 1-2 visits per month). If you have specific questions regarding Okie and his Heartworm treatment, please call our shelter at 248-335-9290.
