Skid

My story

Meet Skid — our longest-term resident who has been waiting far too long for his forever home. Skid is currently in an Oklahoma rescue, and we’re seeking a home in a state where animals are truly valued. Adoption requires prepayment and pickup directly from transport at one of the listed cities below. If for any reason things don’t work out, he will return to Oklahoma on our next transport until a new family is found. Skid is a 2.5-year-old male, possibly a Dutch Shepherd/Mountain Cur mix, weighing 55–60 pounds. He has been with us since July 2023, after arriving at the local shelter as a 2-month-old puppy. He is heartworm positive (diagnosed June 2024) and is on slow-kill treatment. Despite his long wait, he remains a loving, loyal, and well-behaved companion. What you should know about Skid: Gets along well with other dogs. Loves to perch on his doghouse and makes a great watchdog. Enjoys public events and does well with children. Walks nicely on a leash. A little shy at first, but warms up quickly. Can be tested with cats upon request. Recently professionally groomed and handled it like a pro. -Video of Skid: https://youtube.com/shorts/8kRecsPloRo -Video of Skid recently on local news: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/18hbwzfx4G/ Skid is neutered, vaccinated (Rabies, DHLPP, Bordetella), has been dewormed, a *positive* heartworm test in June and is on slow-kill treatment, on monthly flea/tick/HW prevention.
