Joker is a lovable 2-year-old, 50-pound Labrador mix. He's been waiting for a home since October and has been at the shelter longer than any other dog. This Lab loves to play. Once he's worn out, he's ready to relax and take it easy. Joker is great with other dogs. His number at the Oklahoma City Animal Shelter is 314669. Joker's adoption fee has been waived due to the length of time he's been waiting for a family. He's hoping to be in his new home for Valentine's Day. All pets are spayed and neutered, have a microchip, and have had age-appropriate shots and a health check. The shelter is open from noon to 5:30 p.m. seven days a week at 2811 SE 29.
