My story

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

Mustang is a stunning Plott Hound mix who loves playing with other dogs, water, is great with cats, loves people and walks well on the leash. He is also mostly potty trained but will need some re-training in a new environment. He is a good guard dog as he picks up on movements and noises that the other dogs don't (he knows the neighbor's cows are coming to the fence line before any of the other dogs) but he doesn't just yap for no reason, only to alert. He is submissive with other dogs and doesn't bother the cats, even if they swat at him.
He was scheduled to be euthanized at a small rural shelter in Oklahoma with hardly any foot traffic that euthanizes entire litters of puppies for space because no one wants them, so it was through no fault of his own that he was slated to die.

He is currently still in Oklahoma where he was rescued but he can only be adopted out of state where people treat animals well. He has to be prepaid and picked up directly from transport at one of our transport drop off locations below. If things don't work out for some reason, which rarely ever happens, we will either find a local foster to take him in or he will go back to Oklahoma on our next transport until a new home is found.

More about this rescue

Oklahoma Licensed Rescue Number 95

Oklahoma is a bad place for animals. It's the only state that saw an increase in shelter euthanasia rates in 2019. 2020 probably didn't look any different. Strays everywhere, people dumping dogs in the country to fend for themselves, litters of puppies and kittens because people are too cheap or too lazy to fix their pets.

We help these poor souls and find them loving homes in northern states.
