Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Initial bio 11-6-15 Oliver is a 3 year old, 5.5 pound little guy. He is being fostered in West Palm Beach, FL.
Oliver is a very shy pup. He came out of a hoarding situation and is struggling to adjust to his new life. He has become friendly with his new foster brother, but he is not sure about his foster mom and dad. He didn't get very much attention from people in his former home and he has to now learn that people can be trusted.
He is not really eating much. His foster parents are working on finding something he likes to eat. As soon as he starts to feel comfortable and secure in his new home he will start eating. It is going to take time, love, and patience with Oliver as he learns to trust. He does like the fenced backyard and has enjoyed walking around the yard, exploring and sniffing everything.
Oliver is already neutered. He will need all his vaccinations and a heartworm and fecal test. He is going to the vet for all that next week. Once Oliver is vetted and starts to eat and become a little more socialized he will be ready for his forever family.
Oliver will need a home with another dog for company. He would also do best with someone home a lot of the time to continue to work on his socialization skills. Because of his small size and timidness Oliver can only be adopted into a home with adults and children over the age of 14.
If you are ready to take in this sweet boy and give him the love, care, time, and attention he so needs, please fill out an adoption application for him.
Please watch for more on Oliver as his foster parents get to know him better and he adjusts to his new home.
