��%90%BEOLIVER NEEDS HIS FOREVER HOME ��%90%BE Meet Oliver, a handsome 2-year-old Boxer/Lab mix with a heart as big as his goofy smile. At approximately 55 pounds, Oliver is the perfect combination of athletic playmate, adventure buddy, and oversized cuddle bug. Oliver absolutely loves people. He is affectionate, loyal, and happiest when he's close to his family. If you're looking for a dog who will greet you with excitement every day and then happily curl up beside you at night, Oliver is your guy. �%9D%A4��%8F THE GOOD STUFF �%9D%A4��%8F �'ۢ Great with children �'ۢ Great with other dogs �'ۢ No aggression whatsoever toward people or animals �'ۢ Loves to cuddle and be near his people �'ۢ Fun, playful, and full of personality �'ۢ Smart and eager to learn �'ۢ Crate trained �'ۢ Rides well in the car �'ۢ Healthy, young, and active �'ۢ Makes friends wherever he goes Oliver truly does not have an aggressive bone in his body. He loves everyone he meets and genuinely wants to play and be friends with both people and dogs. One of Oliver's sweetest qualities is how deeply attached he is to his people. He isn't the type of dog who wants to spend all day alone in the backyard. He wants to be part of the family and involved in whatever you're doing. Because of this, he would thrive in a home where someone is home frequently or where he won't be left alone for long stretches on a regular basis. And there is one very important thing future adopters should know: Oliver firmly believes that beds are for dogs. More specifically, he believes that beds are for dogs sleeping under the covers with their humans. If you're looking for a dog who will sleep at the foot of the bed, Oliver may politely disagree. If you're looking for a professional cuddle buddy who likes to burrow under blankets and snuggle all night, you'll never find a better candidate. �s%A0��%8F THE HONEST STUFF �s%A0��%8F Oliver is still young and has the energy level to prove it. He plays enthusiastically and sometimes forgets that not everyone wants to wrestle like a linebacker. Because of his size and excitement level, he would do best with older children who won't be accidentally knocked over during play. He also does great with other dogs, but his rough-and-tumble play style makes him a better match for medium-to-large dogs that enjoy active play. Small, elderly, or very timid dogs may find him overwhelming. Oliver can be excitable, occasionally jumps when he's happy, and may counter-surf if something smells delicious enough. Like many young dogs, he benefits from structure, exercise, and consistency. He is not a 'lay around all day' type of dog. He thrives when he has activities, walks, playtime, and people who enjoy having an active companion. ��%8F� HIS IDEAL HOME ��%8F� Oliver would love: �'ۢ An active family �'ۢ A fenced yard or regular exercise routine �'ۢ Older children �'ۢ Another playful dog companion �'ۢ Owners willing to continue reinforcing good manners and training �'ۢ Someone who is home often �'ۢ A family that enjoys having a dog close by and involved in daily life �'ۢ A comfy spot under the covers at bedtime �'ۢ Someone looking for a true family dog and best friend ��շ ADOPTION DETAILS ��շ A $150 rehoming fee applies to ensure serious inquiries only. We will personally bring Oliver to his new home. This is important to us because we want to meet his future family and see where he will be living. Our goal is to make sure Oliver is placed in a safe, loving environment where he can thrive for the rest of his life. This is an incredibly difficult decision, and we are committed to finding the right fit rather than the quickest fit. If you think Oliver may be the perfect addition to your family, please reach out and tell us a little about yourself, your household, your other pets, and the type of life you can offer him. Oliver isn't just looking for a house. He's looking for his people. The kind who don't mind sharing the couch, the blankets, and a little extra space in the bed. In return, you'll get a loyal best friend who will love you with his whole heart every single day.
