Description:
Hey, everyone! I'm OX!I'm the biggest boy you ever did see, weighing in right around 73 pounds. I am what my friends at the shelter here call the Gentle Giant. I am super sweet and loving and love giving my human friends kisses. I love to roll over on my back, get scratches and pets and I even know how to sit very well!I love treats and I play really well with both my girl and boy fur friends here. It might not be the best idea to have me around cats only because I don't know if I like them or not. I will need someone wtih a lot of love and dedication to put towards making sure I get proper leash and obedience training. As I am so large, it will be necessary I get trained on walking politely.I came to the shelter with lots and lots of cuts and scrapes. But now, they're turning into handsome battle scars. It was also discovered that I have heartworm, which is a easily preventable disease! I am currently receiving treatment, and will go home with some medication. The important thing is I will need to be kept calm and quiet while I recover.If you think you have the best love to give me, I would love to meet you.If you are interested in adopting me or another homeless pet at Macomb County Animal Control, walk-in adoption hours are Monday-Friday from 10am-4pm.My adoption fee is SPONSORED!JOIN US FOR THE BISSELL PET FOUNDATION EMPTY THE SHELTERS ADOPTION EVENT HAPPENING MAY 1-15!We will be open Saturday, May 4 from 10am-3pm for a unique `May the Forth be with You Event - THE SHELTER BARKS BACK!
