Ever met a dog who just needs someone willing to go slow and believe in him? Meet OLIVER!
Oliver is a 9-month-old small mixed breed (about 15-18 lbs) with a tender heart and a quiet, thoughtful nature. He is extremely under-socialized, which means the world still feels big and overwhelming to him - and he will need a lot of patience, consistency, and understanding to truly thrive.
Oliver is not a bold or outgoing puppy. He’s an introvert who prefers cozy corners, observing from a safe distance, and taking things at his own pace. He wants to be near his people but doesn’t yet trust hands reaching toward him, so a calm adopter who respects his boundaries is essential.
The good news? He is already making progress! With gentle handling and routine, Oliver is gaining confidence - taking treats more comfortably, staying close on leash without pulling, and learning that humans can be kind and predictable. He does best with structure and having a quiet space where he can retreat and feel safe.
Oliver’s ideal home will be calm and patient, with someone who understands that confidence is built slowly. His adopter should be comfortable giving him space at first - even minimal interaction beyond basic care - so trust can grow naturally on his terms. Oliver has lived with other dogs, suggesting he may do well living in a home with other animals as long as proper, slow introductions are performed!
Oliver is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative, and on flea & tick and heartworm preventatives.
If you believe the quiet ones are often the most special, Oliver may be your perfect match! Please fill out an adoption application on our website - for any additional information or questions, please contact the shelter at wausharacoanimalshelter@gmail.com or (920) 279-9795.
