Oakley Labrador Retriever & Hound Mix Newport, NC

Oakley is a loving, affectionate, and playful 10 month old pup, who is in need of a forever home. She is a sweetheart who was turned in 2/5/25 by her family when the owner's health prevented them from being able to take care of her properly. Since Oakley was surrendered, she can't wait to find a family to love her. She is quiet and a little shy at first, but she will warm up to you and become your very best friend once she gets to know you. Oakley is incredibly loyal and will always be by your side. She loves going on walks and receiving lots of affection. She's beautiful inside and out, and will make a wonderful addition to a lucky family. Oakley is great with people and will make the perfect companion for any family that will give her time to adjust and settle in. If you are interested in adopting Oakley, stop by the shelter for a visit and see for yourself just how sweet and wonderful she is. Oakley can't wait to meet you and begin the next exciting chapter in her life with you.
If you have another dog and are interested in meeting another potential new furry member please bring him or her to the shelter and meet on neutral ground before adopting. No need to shuffle the animals around any more than necessary. Please know that 1 mosquito bite can create heart worms and they can be fatal if not treated. It is VERY important to keep your pets healthy and protected by keeping them on a once a month heart worm and flea/tick prevention. These animals are counting on you as their owner to provide them with lots a love and the proper health care so PLEASE make sure you are aware and prepared before adopting. Owning a pet is an extra expense and responsibility but is so worth every minute and penny you invest in them. They will add lots of joy and unconditional love if given a fair chance.
The shelter is open Mon.-Fri. 10-1, 2-5, Sat. 10-4. Adopt a homeless pet and save a life. If you can not adopt right now come out and volunteer and make a difference in the lives of these animals while they await their FOREVER home.
In order to adopt any of our "bully breeds" there is special paper work that will need to be collected and approved prior to the adoption. We love all of our dogs and want to make sure to place our "bully babies" in homes best suited for them.
