Oliver

My story

*Fostered in Hamilton*Apply at rebeldogrescue.com*APPLY TO FOSTER TO ADOPTBefore Oliver steals your heart... he might steal your spot on the couch too! 🐾💙 At about 2 years old, Oliver is full of happy puppy energy and is always ready for his next adventure. He's incredibly friendly, loves everyone he meets, and is the ultimate snuggle bug when it's time to relax. Oliver is a big fan of toys, treats, and walks beautifully on a leash, making outings a joy. He's also easily redirected and eager to please, making him a wonderful companion for a family ready to give him the love he deserves. If you're looking for a fun, affectionate best friend who will keep you smiling every day, Oliver is your guy! 🦴💕Oliver would love a home that loves to take him on adventures, whether it be the pet store for a new toy, or the park to people watch and observe the squirrels. He has done well with other dogs and may enjoy another playful dog in the home. Preferably not a home on a loud/busy road as new noises can scare him when near his home - though with positive association training/desensitization and confidence building this may be something he can work on.Adoption fee: $950Breed: Poodle mixAge: ~2 yearsWeight: ~20lbSex: Neutered maleGood with men: Yes - friendlyGood with women: Yes - friendlyGood with kids: Unknown, not tested - suspect yes with dog savvy kidsHow does the dog typically act when meeting new people?Approaches happily/outgoing, Approaches in a neutral mannerGood with dogs: Yes, happy to co-existHow does this dog react to meeting new dogs?
