My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


It breaks my heart to have to do this, but my family I need to re-home our beloved dog Oliver. He has not adjusted well to our recent addition, our 16 month old son. We have tried for months to make the situation work, but we feel like Oliver isn’t getting the attention he deserves. A little bit about our boy… he is a boxer/beagle, about 35/40 pounds, and a very sweet dog! He is a senior pup (about 12 years old) with early stages of kidney disease. He is prescribed a special food and it’s manageable, he just needs bathroom breaks every 2/3 hours. He loves to cuddle, is house broken, and is need of a quiet home so he can lounge for his remaining days. He’s a licker, not a biter and doesn’t bark. He has been a city dog all his life. He gets along with other dogs and children, HOWEVER, he is best suited for an adults only home with NO OTHER PETS. When he is not getting the attention he needs he has accidents indoors. We have noticed he gets jealous of other pets.
