My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi there, I’m Oliver—a 10-year-old, 70-pound Black Lab/Retriever mix with a heart full of love. I may be a senior, but I still have plenty of pep for long walks, games of fetch, and snuggles on the couch.
I’m an easygoing guy. I’m used to having the run of the house and I can stay home alone during a normal workday without any issues. At night, I settle down on my dog bed like the gentleman I am.
I’m house trained, crate trained, and leash trained. I walk well on a leash, loose-leash almost always, although I can’t resist giving a little pull if I catch a really interesting scent and I can be leash reactive when I encounter other dogs.
I love people, especially kids—they bring out my playful side. I had a cat-sister in my previous home and am living with a cat-brother in my current foster home.
Treats are my weakness (what can I say, I am a lab)! I currently eat a fish-based diet (but any non-chicken food will do— I'm allergic). And not to brag, but I am pretty smart. At last count I knew 40 plus different phrases and some hand signals to boot!
What I really enjoy most are the simple things: walks, a good game of fetch, and plenty of snuggle time. I’m wonderfully chill when it’s time to relax, and I’m a total sweetheart at heart.
If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will bring both joy and calm to your home, I might just be your perfect match.

We are a foster-based, volunteer-driven rescue. All SDRO dogs available for adoption are listed on our website. The listing includes information to help you decide if one of our dogs is right for your household. If you are interested in adopting a dog, please complete an online application. If your home suits the dog's needs, we'll call you to discuss your application and ask any follow-up questions. Our experienced adoption coordinator will discuss the dog’s needs with you to help determine if your home is the right fit. Since we do not operate a shelter and all our dogs are in foster care, a meet-and-greet will be your first opportunity to meet the dog face-to-face.
