My story

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

Meet Oliver – Professional Snuggler & Ball-Chasing Extraordinaire!

Say hello to Oliver, a lovable 2-year-old goofball with a heart of gold and a serious passion for belly rubs, fetch, and being your personal shadow.

Oliver was found hanging out at an abandoned construction site (he claims he was supervising), but now he’s all about indoor life. Cozy beds? Yes, please. Thunderstorms? Not so much. He prefers cuddles on the couch when the skies get scary.

This sweet boy is a certified Velcro dog—if you move, he moves. If you sit, he snuggles. If you throw the ball... well, he’s already on it. He can be a little clingy, but can you blame him? He’s had a rough start and just wants to know he’s safe and loved. He tends to warm up faster to the ladies in the house, so we suspect he may have had some not-so-great experiences with men in the past. But with kindness and patience, Oliver truly blossoms.

He’s great with other dogs (though his excitement can be a bit much for the little ones), and would thrive in a home with older kids who can handle his enthusiasm and help him burn off some energy.

Oliver came to us as a stray, and while we wish we could keep him, our dog count is already at four—so we’re on the hunt for his perfect forever home.

If you’ve got love to give, a backyard to run in, and a couch to share, Oliver just might be your new best friend.

Come meet this sweet, goofy guy—you might just fall in love.

Oliver is participating in The Love Pit's iRehome program, so ongoing care and custody are provided by their foster. All behavior and medical information is provided by their caretaker, and TLP encourages all adopters to verify the information with their caretaker prior to adoption.

Additional adoption info

Adopting from The Love Pit means gaining a family member. It means gaining a network of pit bull advocates, ready to support you and provide you with all of the resources we can. Most importantly, adopting from The Love Pit saves lives. When you adopt, you're saving the life of your own dog, opening space in their foster home for another shelter dog in need, and creating space in the shelter kennel for a dog whose life would have otherwise been on the line. Your thanks for all the good you've done? Lots of love and pit bull kisses to enjoy for years to come.

Go meet their pets

We have monthly adoption events at different locations in Dallas and Fort Worth which are announced on our social media pages and will also be posted on our website.

We will also set up an appointment with you to meet the dog of your choosing.

More about this rescue

We are a foster/volunteer based 501c3 nonprofit dog rescue in Dallas, Texas. Our mission is to reduce the number of homeless pit bull type dogs in shelters and on the streets through rescue, rehabilitation, education, and advocacy.

Our goal is to educate the public about a breed that often falls victim to breed specific legislation, discrimination, and cruelty and promote responsible pet ownership through spay/neuter initiatives, vaccinations, and training resources.
