Oliver

Oliver is a wonderful puppy who’s just beginning to blossom. After spending about a month at the shelter, this shy boy has started to come out of his shell. He arrived very frightened — he used to hide in his little house and didn’t want to come out — but step by step he began to trust the volunteers. He’s made a special friendship with an equally timid girl and loves spending time with her.

Oliver would do well in a calm, patient home. He can join a family that already has dogs or be the only dog, but he may thrive with a gentle, confident canine friend who can show him the ropes. Young children might overwhelm him for now, so a family with older kids would be a better match.

Give Oliver a little time and kindness, and you’ll see a sweet, loyal companion who’s ready to love his people forever.
