Oso's Story

Oso has been waiting for over three years for a home of his own.<br/><br/>For more than 1,000 days, Oso has watched other dogs leave rescue with their families while he stays behind. Through it all, he remains gentle, hopeful, and eager for connection.<br/><br/>Oso is a collie mix with a joyful spirit and a deeply affectionate nature. After losing his longtime companion, Chico, he was left alone and has been searching ever since for someone to choose him. Despite the long wait, Oso still greets people with warmth and enthusiasm. He loves playtime, yard zoomies, and games of fetch, but he is just as happy curling up beside his people once the day winds down.<br/><br/>He is a loving, people-oriented dog who thrives on companionship and being part of daily life. Oso enjoys wide-open spaces and especially loves water. He is house-trained, crate-trained, and does very well on car rides, making him an easy and adaptable companion.<br/><br/>Oso does well with female dogs and can be selective with male dogs, though slow and proper introductions can lead to success. He would do best with dog-savvy children who understand how to interact respectfully with an active but gentle dog. A home with a yard where he can run and play would be ideal.<br/><br/>After waiting more than three years in rescue, Oso is more than ready to finally belong to a family of his own. He is loyal, resilient, and full of love to give — he just needs someone willing to see past the length of his stay and give him the chance he deserves.<br/><br/>Oso is located in Ada, Oklahoma. SRGDRR adopts nationwide and offers transport options.<br/><br/>If you are looking for a devoted companion and are ready to give a long-waiting dog the home he has been hoping for, Oso is waiting.

Team Rocky Enterprises, Inc.'s Adoption Policy
How Our Adoption Process Works Team Rocky Enterprises DBA Save Rocky the Great Dane Rescue and Rehab (SRGDRR) follows a thoughtful adoption process designed to ensure the best possible match for both our dogs and their future families. Our available dogs are posted on our website, Facebook page, and multiple adoption platforms, including Petfinder. Once you find a dog you’re interested in, the process includes: 1. Adoption Application – This helps us learn about you, your household, and what you’re looking for in a dog so we can make the best match. 2. Veterinary Reference Check – We verify that current or past pets have received appropriate veterinary care. First-time pet owners are welcome and encouraged to apply. 3. Phone Interview – This is a chance for us to talk with you about the dog you’re interested in, including personality, needs, medical history, and any quirks. It’s also your opportunity to ask questions about the dog and our rescue. 4. Home Check – We confirm that your home environment is safe and appropriate for the dog, whether that includes a fenced yard or a leash-walking setup. This is not a housekeeping inspection—just a safety check. Once all steps are completed and approved, you’ll sign an adoption contract and submit an adoption donation. From there, your new forever friend will be ready to head home! Why This Process Matters Our goal is to match each dog with a home that best meets their needs. Some dogs thrive with experienced owners, while others do best with someone who is home most of the day or understands specific behavioral or medical needs. Taking the time to get this right helps ensure lifelong, successful adoptions. Our Lifetime Commitment If at any point you are unable to keep your adopted dog, you must contact us. We will always take our dogs back. We never want them to end up in unsafe situations or shelters again. Our responsibility to each dog lasts for their lifetime. Thank you for choosing rescue and for considering adoption with SRGDRR.
