Oliver - AVAILABLE TO FOSTER OR ADOPTION's Story

At just 29 pounds and 7 years old, Oliver is the perfect pint-sized companion for someone who appreciates a gentle, slower-paced bond. This handsome little guy has had a life that taught him to be cautious, so he takes time to trust new people. If you rush him, he can be a bit snippy — not out of meanness, but out of fear. Because of this, Oliver will need a home without children and with someone who understands that good things take time. But here’s the best part: once Oliver realizes you’re safe and kind, he transforms into the sweetest, most affectionate boy. He truly blooms when he feels secure. With patience, consistency, and kindness, Oliver will show you just how much love he has to give — and it’s a lot. If you’ve been looking for a loyal companion who will bond deeply with you, Oliver might just be your perfect match. He’s also looking for a foster, so even a temporary home would make a world of difference for him. If Oliver speaks to your heart, reach out — he’s ready for someone special to show him that the world can be gentle again.

Red Barn Rescue's Adoption Policy

All dogs in our care are spayed/neutered, microchipped, vaccinated (including Rabies when age-appropriate), heartworm tested, and kept on heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives. Many dogs also receive dental care, heartworm treatment, or other medical procedures as needed. Prospective adopters must complete an adoption application and receive approval before meeting a dog. Applicants must list all current pets, and those pets must be spayed/neutered, current on vaccinations, and on heartworm prevention. A home visit may be required as part of our approval process. Once approved, we will schedule a meet-and-greet with your family, including current dogs. Adopters are responsible for ongoing veterinary care, keeping their pets up to date on vaccines and preventatives, and maintaining a safe, responsible home. If you are looking for a specific type or breed, you may submit an application and note your preferences for future consideration. Our adoption fee reflects the medical care and resources invested in preparing each dog for a healthy start. If an adopter can no longer care for their dog, the dog must be returned to Red Barn Rescue as stated in our contract.
