Oliver is an adorable black and tan shepherd boy who is eager to learn what it's like to be a valued member of a family. Our volunteers will shower him with attention, but we know that Oliver wants to be someone's pride and joy. He's an active, inquisitive puppy who will grow into a wonderful adult, given proper direction, leadership and training.Oliver was found as a stray with no collar or tags, just a tattered piece of dirty rope tied around his neck. He had so many ticks feeding off him that he was anemic and lethargic. He's on the road to recovery but will truly thrive in a loving, forever home.
UPDATE AUGUST 8
Oliver is gradually gaining confidence. He is in a foster home where he is learning that he doesn't have to be afraid. The first few days that he was there, Oliver hid behind anything that he could find. Now, he's venturing out to meet the other foster dogs and to see what smells so good in the kitchen!
Oliver is going to need a very, very patient and reassuring home because his life has been so horrible until this point. Could you be the person to show him how wonderful life can truly be?
