Huckley Golden Retriever & Great Pyrenees Mix Kiowa, OK

Huckley Summary ?

Huckley is an 11-month-old, 65lb male Golden Retriever/Great Pyrenees mix. Huckley is a happy-go-lucky little sunshine pup. He is always so happy! One of the best qualities of Huckley is how cuddly he is. He will sleep in your arms like a baby and cuddle up in your lap. A home that desires this quality and wouldn’t mind him laying on the furniture or bed, would be a great fit for him.

Huckley would do very well with kids, as long as they were dog savvy. He is a playful puppy, but otherwise, so very sweet and would grow into a great family dog. He is very dog friendly and loves to play and cuddle with the other dogs!

---------------------------------------------

I used to have a family. I wasn't always without a home...but then again every dog has their own story about how it got to this point. Today, you get to hear mine.

It should have never happened. I should have never ended up on the streets. That isn't how my adoption story should have been. I was cute, I was playful, and I was everything that someone would want in a puppy. So, why did they abandon me? Was it because I had an accident in the house? Was it because I chewed up something? Was I too playful for them? Why? Why did they not only abandon me but allow me to end up on the streets? Did they not understand how dangerous that was for me? Did they not realize that I would look for them? One minute they were there and the next they weren't. I went from being safe inside to dodging cars. I went from getting meals to digging through the trash. I went from having a nice bed to sleeping on the cold streets. Obviously, this was all a mix-up. My owners were coming to come for me and if they didn't I would find them. They wouldn't truly abandon me like this, and they would be so happy when I found them again.

As it turns out...I never got the chance. I guess it is a crime to be roaming the streets without your family, and I ended up in doggie jail. At least now my owners would know where I was and would take me home. They never did though. As each day went by, the reality truly set in that they no longer wanted me. That this was truly happening. That I was now homeless. I realized that I was just another abandoned shelter dog who was failed by the people he loved.

As you can tell, I made it out of the shelter. I had a foster family step up for me which allowed this rescue to accept me into their program. When I entered my foster home, I had a choice to make. I could choose to let my past affect me, or I could continue to love life and everything it has to offer. I chose the second option. It took some time, but eventually, I was adopted!

Sadly, I have found myself homeless once again. I struggle with separation anxiety and my owners have been working with me on this but now they have a baby on the way and feel that they can no longer properly care for me and it be best that I be rehomed. This news sucks because I had really hoped that they would be my forever but then I realized that everything will be okay. My forever family wasn't able to adopt me as a puppy, but now that I am older they are ready for me...and I them!

I am an active, playful, and cuddly guy who loves naps. I love to play with the other dogs, I love to play with toys and I enjoy going for walks. I like drinking from the water hose but you better not turn that hose on me! I am not a fan of playing in the water, I am many things but a water dog doesn't seem to be one of them.

I am a total people dog, I don't let the betrayal of my past mess with how I react to people in the present. I will happily go up to them and say hello. I am one of those dogs that always seem to be smiling and am welcoming to everyone that I meet! I do jump when I get excited. I can't help it, how can you expect me to hold in my excitement when you come home? Or not to try and give hugs to the people that came over to say hi to me?! While I love getting to meet adults, I also enjoy hanging out and playing with the kiddos. I am a playful puppy though so the kids should be 5+. I am not currently being fostered around the creatures referred to as "cats". I have heard about them but have yet to meet one. I am a pretty happy-go-lucky guy so I think we would get along just fine, but hopefully, they wouldn't mind if I try to play with them.

I know that a lot of people like to keep a clean house so I am happy to report that I am potty trained. I am really not a fan of the kennel though and will try to break out of it which means my new family will need to think outside of the box on where to keep me when they are away. I just LOVE my people so much that it hurts to be away from them. I can be a chewer if things are left out...I am still a puppy after all ;) . So, my new family needs to have things put up and lots of toys lying around for me.

If my new family were home a lot and able to take me places with them, I may do okay in an apartment setting. I haven't been a big barker in my adoptive home.

If you are looking to add a little sunshine and happiness to your life, I do hope you will choose me. I am such a happy go lucky guy that loves to have fun almost as much as I love to cuddle! I have already been passed around a few times though, so please...if you apply for me...make sure it is forever. I really do not want to have to be passed around yet again down the road because I was only an "until" dog.

Once you submit an application for me, it will be sent to my foster family. This is to help ensure that not only am I a good fit for you but that you are also a good fit for me! ?

I am currently residing in the Jenks, OK area. If you have fallen in love with me and are out of state, how about a road trip? I won't go on a long transport, so the only way I am relocating to another state...is if we are in that car together ?

My adoption fee is $250. That will include my DHLPP, Rabies, and Bordetella. I will be micro-chipped, have a fecal done, be de-wormed, be spayed/neutered, and will be current on heartworm and flea/tick prevention.
