About Oatmeal

Oatmeal A188139 46 lb. spayed female, approx 2 years old -She walks beautifully on leash without pulling and would love a home that lets her enjoy plenty of sniff walks and explore at her own pace. -She was a little nervous at first but quickly showed how much she craves affection. Once I sat on the floor, she slowly made her way over for attention. She'd almost sit, with her little butt hovering, like she wanted to relax but wasn't quite sure how. When I finally guided her into my lap, she melted, eventually rolling over for belly rubs and offering the sweetest, gentle kisses. After that, she wanted to be as close as possible, pressing into me every time I tried to move. -She wasn't interested in toys and didn't eat the treats offered, but what she really wanted was something much simpler: to feel safe, loved, and close to someone. It was so hard to say goodbye when all she wanted was to stay in that moment. -Seems non reactive to dogs nearby and may do well living with a fur sibling after slow and proper intros Unknown behavior with dogs/cats/kids *Meet all of our adoptable pets on our website friendsofdacc.org/adopt *Please keep in mind that the shelter can be a very stressful environment. *Studies show that a minimum of 3 days decompression drastically lower stress hormones and allow the dog to show more personality after they have settled in. *There is a suggested donation of $100 for our dogs, payable by cash, check or through paypal at the time of the adoption. *To meet them please go to front door and a DACC staff member will assist you with adoption or fostering. **And when coming to meet one of our dogs, please bring all the humans with you, but leave any current dogs at home. Staff will go over how to slowly and properly introduce them after a decompression period.** *The shelter is open 7 days a week from 10:30-5:30, except for Wednesday when we open at 11:30 **We ask that if you're looking to adopt, you arrive before 5:00 to be able to have enough time to meet the dog. **1431 E Ferry St. Detroit
