Meet Bolt. He spent a long stretch as a stray, surviving tough streets around Tulsa—plenty of people saw him, but there was never space in a foster home until one day he ended up in the city shelter. Life outside left its mark: Bolt is wary of men, especially at first, likely because of past trauma. He warms up with patience but does best when it’s just women or a single female adopter. He’s figured out how to make friends with other dogs (though he once clashed with an unneutered male), but Bolt is not a fit for homes with children or cats. He’s comfortable in a kennel, keeps a clean house, isn’t destructive, and rarely ever makes a fuss. Sunbathing and toys are his simple pleasures. Meet and greets—probably a couple—are essential for gaining his trust. Bolt already knows his basic obedience and settles in easily. Despite the history, he’s lower maintenance than you’d expect and grateful for routine. He’s currently heartworm positive, but his treatment is covered. Bolt is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and up to date on preventives. He’s in Tulsa, OK, but open for adoption nationwide, and he could use someone solid in his corner.
