About Diesel

Diesel is an 8-year-old Australian Shepherd who's turning 9 in January. He’s proof that age doesn’t define energy or personality! This affectionate and lively boy needs an active home where he can engage in both physical exercise and mental challenges. His walks begin with hilarious bursts of zoomies before he settles down and walks beautifully on a leash. Crate trained and a champion car rider, Diesel excels in doggy daycare as well. He’s quite vocal and will alert you to any perceived dangers. Communication is key for Diesel; he may display some resource guarding behaviors with food and toys but just growls to indicate he's uncomfortable. Because of this, he would thrive best with an experienced owner. Diesel gets along well with dogs, enjoys his daycare playtime, and is selective with cats. Older children who understand dog boundaries would be ideal companions. If you’re ready for a loyal friend who brings joy and energy into your life, Diesel is waiting for you. Fosters are welcome and provided with everything needed—plus, you’ll have priority for adoption. Located in Oklahoma City, OK. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
