Meet Max. This big goofball has been in our care since November 8th of 2020. He is as playful and fun loving as he is handsome. We estimate his age at about two, as an American bulldog this means that he shouldn't get any bigger. He has been in several playgroups, however was returned due to not getting along with the resident dog. We would suggest a meet and greet if you have a dog in the home already to make sure that the personalities are a good fit. Max has NO ADOPTION FEE due to length of stay. If you would like to meet him please call 405-292-9736 for an appointment today!

Help our shelter dogs stay comfortable by donating a Kuranda Bed today! Using beds like these helps keep the dogs be more comfortable by sleeping on an elevated bed, instead of the textured concrete. We already have beds similar to this in our shelter, but wear and tear on the PVC version have left some kennels without beds. (Don't worry they still get blankets) When you follow the link below, and purchase a bed for our shelter dogs, Kuranda will ship them directly to NAW where they will be put to use reducing stress for our dogs. https://shelterbeds.org/index.php
