In the meantime, here’s some brief information about three breeds that are in high demand in Oklahoma.

Labrador Retrievers in Oklahoma: These are highly affectionate dogs that do exceptionally well with young children and get along well with other dogs. This makes Lab Retrievers the all-time favorites with Oklahoma families looking for an active, friendly, loving pet. Keep in mind though that these are relatively large dogs who need space and plenty of exercise.

Pit Bull Terriers in Oklahoma: This is a people-loving breed that is smart and loyal and enjoys robust health in general. However, Oklahomans thinking of bringing a Pit Bull Terrier puppy home should know that these dogs are strong willed and have a high prey drive. Also, owners may experience breed discrimination given that Pit Bull Terriers have a reputation of being fierce, unmanageable dogs.

Chihuahuas in Oklahoma: If you are an Oklahoma family or individual who lives in an apartment and are worried about how a dog will adapt to city living, the Chihuahua is pretty much tailor made for this lifestyle. These intelligent dogs are easy to groom and have a long lifespan. But before you go and get yourself an adorable Chi puppy, know that this dog has a high tendency to bark. Also, Chihuahuas may not be the best choice if you have small children.

There are tons of beautiful puppies for sale in Oklahoma from some of the best breeders in the country. If you’re not sure which breed is right for your lifestyle and/or the climate in Oklahoma, get in touch with some of responsible breeders listed on Puppy Hero and they’ll give you a frank opinion.
