Oliver

Oliver’s story is one of both heartbreak and hope. He came to us as a tiny puppy, chained up in a backyard, waiting for someone to see his worth. And when that day finally came, he was adopted into a family who loved him deeply. For a year, Oliver had what every dog dreams of — a home, a person to call his own, a place where he was safe.<br/><br/>But sometimes, love alone isn’t enough. Oliver struggled to get along with the male dog in the home, and through no fault of his own, he was returned. Now at two and a half years old, this big, handsome American Bulldog mix is back with us, still carrying the same open heart he’s always had, still ready to give his love to someone who will be his forever.<br/><br/>Oliver is a total cuddlebug. He wants nothing more than to be near his people, whether that means curling up at your feet, following you from room to room, or leaning into you for comfort and connection. He is silly, sweet, and so full of love — the kind of dog who just wants to be your shadow and your best friend.<br/><br/>What Oliver needs is simple: a person or family who believes in him, who will give him the structure and affection he craves. He would thrive as the only dog in the home, but could also do well with a gentle, non-dominant female dog. Above all, he needs someone who will see him for what he is — a loyal, loving soul who’s just waiting for the chance to bloom in the right home.<br/><br/>Oliver has already lost so much, but he hasn’t lost his ability to trust, or his hope that the right person is out there. If you give him that chance, he’ll give you his whole heart in return.<br/><br/><br/>Adoption is $275, which includes spay/neuter at our vet, vaccines, dewormer, microchip, and clean bill of health. Although we work to potty train all of our dogs, we cannot guarantee full house training before adoption. Regression is a normal part of transitioning to a new home.<br/><br/>APPLY on our WEBSITE:<br/>Rebeldogsdetroit.com/applytoadopt<br/>Rebeldogsdetroit.com/becomeafoster
