Oliver's Story

Hi there! I’m Oliver, a 10-year-old, 20-pound Shih Tzu with a gentle soul, a heart full of love and a few extra pounds of fluff to love! Okay, so maybe I’m carrying around about five pounds more than I should be, but that just means there’s a little more of me to cuddle! I’m a sweet, laid-back gentleman who has long since outgrown the need to be the life of the party. At my age, I’ve figured out that the best things in life are a comfortable place to relax, a little affection and someone special to share my days with. I’m not looking for excitement. I’m looking for love, companionship and a soft place to land.<br/><br/>I’m about as easygoing as they come! Nothing really seems to bother me and I’m perfectly content just hanging out and enjoying life at my own pace. I have a low energy level and I’m not particularly interested in running around or playing endless games of fetch. I’m more of a loyal sidekick kind of guy! I’d be the perfect companion for a mom who wants a little buddy following her around while the kids are at school, keeping her company throughout the day and making sure she never feels alone. I’m happy to be part of a family with children, but I’m probably not going to be the one chasing them around the backyard. I’d much rather supervise from a comfortable spot! I could also be a wonderful companion for someone retired or anyone who appreciates a peaceful, loving dog. I could stand to lose about five pounds, so a healthy diet and some gentle walks would help me feel my very best. I may be a little older and a little rounder, but I have so much love left to give!<br/><br/>I’m dog friendly, people friendly and can be cat tested upon request! I’ll come fully vetted, neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations and preventatives. My adoption also includes one month of FREE pet insurance plus a Fi Nano Mini GPS tracker with six months of tracking service ($20 activation fee)! I know everyone loves an adorable puppy, but there’s something pretty special about an older dog who already knows how to appreciate the quiet moments. I’m not asking for much, just someone who will love me, help me get a little healthier and let me spend my golden years being their faithful little companion. Could I be the sweet sidekick you never knew you needed?<br/><br/>If interested, please DO NOT submit an inquiry through Petfinder. Fill out the application at the link below. <br/><br/>https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/63adcb00cb896f59b74103d2/6adf7b8bf08cac19eb011cf2

Angie's Dog House's Adoption Policy
Our Adoption Process Our goal is to make the adoption process as smooth as possible while making sure each animal is matched with the right home 1. Submit an Application Complete our adoption application using the link at the bottom of each animal’s bio. Our team will review your application and if approved, someone from the rescue will reach out. PLEASE DO NOT FILL OUT AN INQUIRY ON PETFINDER 2. Home Video Once approved, we will ask you to submit a video walkthrough of your home and yard in lieu of an in-person home visit 3. Animals Already in Foster If the animal is currently in a foster home, the foster parent will contact you to answer questions, tell you more about the animal and arrange a meet and greet. Please bring a leash to the meet and greet. If everything goes well and you feel it is the right match, you may complete the adoption and take your new family member home that day 4. Direct Adoptions From Transport Some of our animals travel to Michigan specifically for direct adoption rather than going into a foster home. Because these animals are coming on transport specifically to meet their approved adopter, a direct adoption must be a firm commitment. Please ask any questions and make sure you are comfortable moving forward before committing to a transport animal 5. Finalizing the Adoption To complete the adoption, you will sign our adoption contract and pay the adoption fee. Once complete, your new family member is officially yours and can head home with you
