Hi! My name is Oliver and I am a 9-year-old 22lb Chiweenie - a wonderful mix of Chihuahua and Dachshund. Forever Loved took me right in from a shelter where I was struggling with all the chaos that goes along with lots of scared and homeless dogs. Right away I was scooped into the loving arms of a foster home and by the end of the first day, I was already starting to blossom. My foster mom says that I am a happy guy and I have a fun, relaxed personality. I love car rides and enjoy looking out while we travel together. I would love to be in a home where you are not gone 10 hours a day because I like hanging out near my humans. I take just a minute to warm up to strangers, and I thrive in a calm and quiet lifestyle, so if there are children in your home, I would love for them to respect me and know that I’m not a stuffed toy.

More about this rescue
Forever Loved Pet Sanctuary (FLPS) is the only senior-only animal rescue in Maricopa County, Arizona. Formed in 2012 as a non-profit 501[c][3] organization, the focus of FLPS is to save senior animals who are often overlooked by providing them the opportunity to thrive in a safe and caring environment. FLPS serves a public need by offering housing to a limited number of senior pets.
This safe haven, takes the burden of temporary care and housing of senior animals off of local shelters. Inevitably, local shelters resort to euthanizing these abandoned, senior animals at an alarming rate. According to a 2012 statistics report, Maricopa County Animal Care and Control (MCACC) euthanizes one animal every eight minutes it is open to the public. Euthanasia for senior residents is the primary option for most local shelters because they tend to focus their efforts on a high adoption model that includes younger “more adoptable” animals. FLPS works with local shelters and rescues to identify the senior animals in need and provide a streamlined process for interested men, women and families who wish to adopt.
