Occasionally we have adult dogs available. While we do NOT broker adult dogs, or grow dogs out specifically for sale as adults, we do every now and then have a grown out prospect we have decided not to include in the breeding program or a retiring adult dogs, who would be better situated in a new home.
Because we have a lifetime return policy for every puppy we place it also happens that we may have a dog available because their current owner cannot keep them. There are a variety of reasons for this, from job loss, divorce, health problems, or a mismatch of dog and owner needs.
At this time all our own dogs are raised in our home, none are kennel raised or living in the kennel. This means are all socialized to home life, have basic house manners, are house trained, and ready to make someone an excellent companion.
We no longer have any cats as my two seniors passed in 2023 and of course there are only adults living here now, so the current dogs have not been exposed to either.
Established Clients always have priority placement consideration for adult dogs and may request an adult dog even if they do not live locally.
All other adult dogs will only be placed within a 3 hour drive of Tulsa (or the city the dog resides in) and you must visit in person a few times so we (and you) can determine if the match is good for all involved. This also allows you and the dog to get to know each other before the dog is transitioned to the new home.
All OUR adult dogs will be:
1. Home raised and currently living full time in our home with other dogs.
2. Healthy, current on vaccinations, heartworm prevention, worming, flea/tick prevention, and with no known undisclosed medical considerations, full health records maybe requested from our vet to your vet.
3. Behaviorally sound with no known undisclosed behavioral problems, quirks, or challenges. Multiple visits for new clients required so you can get to know the dog before making a decision. All dogs are crate trained, manageable at the vet, pleasant and sociable with visitors unless disclosed otherwise.
Adult Dogs In Need of New Homes
Kim v Holzgrew
neutered Male, sable, 3 years
Kim resides with us near Tulsa, Oklahoma
Kim is a two year old neutered sable male we purchased as a potential breeding dog. He has not passed his health testing (hips) and so has been neutered and is ready for a new home.
Kim is a large male, around 95 lbs, he is healthy (HD diagnosis aside) and active.
We are looking for an adults only home near Tulsa, because we have no small children around so Kim has not been raised around children, it's better to transition him to an adult home since that is what we have here.
Kim is house trained, calm and mannerly in the house and he's good in a crate too. We are only considering indoor/outdoor homes for Kim because he is used to living in the house with us and that is what we want for him going forward.
He does get on the furniture, because we allow that.
He eats great, has a solid gut, no skin, allergy, or other types of issues at all.
Kim is a very easy dog to live with, his energy level is medium, he likes a walk and going places but he's happy and calm when it's too hot or cold for doing much outside.
Kim is easy and mannerly on leash, we walk him on just a harness or flat collar. He is easy and mannerly on leash.
We are only considering homes near enough to Tulsa that you can come and get to know Kim a few times before taking him home. Kim can be somewhat aloof with strangers and he takes a few minutes to warm up and make friends. We want to make sure he loves his new family as much as he loves us. He would do best in a home that doesn't have a lot of strangers coming and going because it takes him a little bit to warm up to people and if pressured he can get defensive. So if you host lots of company he is not right for you, if you live alone, or are a couple, and tend to keep to yourselves he is perfect for you.
He is a super affectionate, playful, smart, and "heart of gold" dog who will make someone a devoted companion and protector.
