About Oliver

Oliver was found as a stray by a local sheriff's department, but his spirit remained joyful despite being underweight and neglected. He happily jumped into their car and has been a delight ever since. With a gentle demeanor typical of an Anatolian Shepherd, he keeps a watchful eye on his surroundings and alerts everyone to anything unusual. He recently got moved to a room where he can see all the activity in both the barn and the kennel, bringing him much joy. Oliver enjoys playful moments with his buddy, Stanley. The two are inseparable, engaging in wrestling matches and games of hide and seek. For the best experience, we prefer they be adopted together. Healthy and up to date on vaccinations, Oliver is neutered and microchipped. While he hasn’t had much interaction with small children, he remains at ease with strangers. Always observant, he even lets us know when the cat wanders outside, showing his protective side. With his handsome tricolor coat, Oliver makes a wonderful companion.
