Story
Meet Oliver! Oliver is a goofy, affectionate lovebug who has a wonderful balance of playful puppy energy and laid-back couch potato charm. He loves attention, enjoys playing with toys and sticks, and is perfectly happy entertaining himself when his people are busy. He's friendly with strangers and gets along with both big and small dogs. While he loves having a playmate, Oliver would also be perfectly content being the center of attention as an only dog. Oliver has made tremendous progress since being rescued from the pound in Texas, where he was severely malnourished. He's learning what it means to be a dog in a home, and his personality is really starting to shine! He's mostly crate-trained, does well overnight without accidents, and is continuing to work on his house-training. Like many young dogs, he still has occasional accidents, but he's making progress. Oliver does have a few things his future family will need to understand. He can be mildly reactive around food bowls, so meals will need to be managed carefully, with a safe, separate feeding space. He also gets some pretty impressive bursts of energy after meals and potty breaks! During those moments, he may chew on blankets or pillows, but he's been doing well learning to redirect that energy onto appropriate chew toys. Oliver would love to be an only dog or share his home with a calm, older dog who can help show him the ropes. He's a big lovebug who enjoys snuggling with his people, but he's also independent enough to find himself a cozy spot and settle in for a nap. Oliver has come a long way, and he's looking for a family who will continue helping him grow with patience, consistency, and plenty of affection. If you're ready for a goofy, loving companion with a little puppy mischief mixed in, Oliver might be your guy!
