Hello, friends, my name is Oliver! I’m a 1-year-old, 9lb Yorkie Shih Tzu mix (Shorkie) boy, and I’ll be honest – my start in life was rough. I was found by the side of the road, discarded like I didn’t matter. Because of that, I’m still learning to trust and I can be unsure when meeting new people and other dogs — proper introductions are a must. My amazing foster mom is working with me on this, and I’m making progress every day!
I’m doing okay with my older female foster dog sibling, but I may do best as an only dog where I can get all the attention. I don’t know about cats yet, and I need an adult-only home – no kids for me, please. I sleep in bed with my foster mom at night and love lounging on the couch during the day because comfort is life!
I am pretty sure I am what you call housebroken. I haven’t learned yet how to tell my humans when I need to go potty, but I know I can learn. For now, if you take me out frequently, I do great with no accidents. I do okay on a leash but need help building my confidence when seeing other people and dogs…I would really prefer a home with a fenced-in yard to run and play and so I don’t need to go on many walks.
Crates are ok and I know they keep me safe when you’re not home. They are also helpful because…now here’s the fun part: I’m still ALL puppy! I’m a chewer who loves my favorite toys, so you’ll need to puppy-proof your home and protect your favorite things. Fair warning!
I need a patient, experienced adopter who understands I’ve been through a lot and will give me time to heal and grow. I’m young with so much potential – I just need someone who believes in me. Is that YOU?
