Oliver

Oliver followed his current care taker home while she was out walking. She has tried to find his owners, but has had no luck. This poor little fellow was probably dumped and was fortunate enough to find a caring person to follow home. His care taker has two older and bigger dogs, and he loves to follow them around the yard and watch what they are doing. One of these older dogs is very dog aggressive, but Oliver listens to her and stays out of her way. The three dogs walk well together on leashes. He is very affectionate, eager to please and likes to learn new things. He is full of energy but has not made any attempts to dig holes in the yard (although he has had many opportunities)!

Oliver is around 5 years old and was probably someone's yard dog. He may have had an injury to his hips in the past, so he does not like to be picked up by his stomach or back legs. He weighs 13 lbs, is up to date on his shots and is heartworm negative. Although he is not neutered, his care taker is planning on having him neutered during the second weekend in July. He is working on his house training and is doing well with crate training too. He is currently in the Durham NC area. For more info, please contact Linda at lbuchannc@yahoo.com
