Oliver

What my friends at OHS say about me:

• Watch my video above!
• I have been working with the Behavior and Training team here at OHS and am looking for a special home. To learn more about my specific needs, please read my What to Expect handout.
• I really enjoy the company of my human friends! I've never met a stranger and will roll over for belly rubs, cuddle on the couch, and play fetch with friends!
• I love to learn! You can use my favorite toys or treats as positive reinforcement and to teach me new things. Let me show off what I know for you! I know sit, lay down, stay, leave it, roll over, and walking politely on leash! And I've got a great "blue steel" look to boot!
• Bite History: I have a history of biting a person when I got overly excited during play time.
• High Energy: I can become easily frustrated if my energy and exercise needs are not met. Let's keep each other active.
• I love to run! I have been on the running team while at OHS and would make a great running and/or hiking buddy!
• I would love to get up and go adventure with you, but dog parks will never be my thing.

The type of home I'm looking for:

• I would flourish in a calm environment and a low-traffic home! High rise apartments or busy neighborhoods would be too much activity for me.
• My perfect family would be an adult household where I can be their one and only pet. I would be overwhelming for young children; I might knock them down and try to steal their toys.
• I'm quite the rambunctious pup, and I am not for the first time dog owner. Someone very familiar with canine body language is a must for me!
• I need to be the only dog in the home.
• I need a home without cats or other small animals.
• It could be with you! Click here to learn about the adoption process.
