This is one lucky pup! Oliver was advertised as a ” free ” pup on Craig’s list… The worst nightmare for any rescuer is the nefarious intentions of people looking for bait dogs or to sell to labs ….One of our favorite rescuers contacted the slime bag “owner” who then demanded payment for this little guy who had been shaved ( whiskers and all!!!) Fortunately the rescuer had cash and Oliver is in a safe place and now be available to live the rest of his life in a stable home.
Oliver is about 2 mos old, a chi-terrier mix…so likely to stay smallish (best guess is less than 15 lbs). He is due to be neutered and will be vaccinated before he arrives to RDR. Right now he is getting extra love and puppy food from his foster mom/savior as well as lots of playtime with her dogs.
If you are interested in meeting this little guy, please submit an adoption application (found online at www.rocketdogrescue.org) and a volunteer will contact you soon! (VL)
