DOG'S DESCRIPTION

This beautiful boy is really a total love. He loves to be pet and will give you a little poke with his nose for some more love. He's very sweet and good with people of all sizes and ages. He's living in a foster home with kids and they can pet him, hug him, or do just about anything and he is just grateful for the attention. He's low energy and just loves belly rubs. He's completely housetrained and well-behaved. He LOVES to go on walks. Loud noises scare him and he doesn't do well with other dogs so he needs to be an only dog. He is afraid around new people but warms up as he gets to know them and feels more comfortable. Oliver is a really sweet boy who would love to snuggle up with a family where he can be loved forever.  

Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.           

Adoption fees cover basic vetting, spay/neuter surgery (for dogs over 6 months old), rabies, distemper/parvo vaccinations, treatment for worms, heartworm testing, monthly heartworm prevention and monthly flea/tick prevention (while the animal is in our care), and transport costs from high-kill shelter. Please note that on average, K-9 Lifesavers spend significantly more on each dog than their adoption fee. Adoption fee for HW positive dog also covers heartworm treatment at our partner vets.
