About Oliver

Meet Oliver! Oliver is a sweet 4–5-month-old Black Mouth Cur and Jack Russell Terrier mix who has already faced more challenges than most puppies. Born outdoors in South Texas, he and his sister knew nothing of a warm bed or the safety that a loving home provides. Both pups developed mange, which left them uncomfortable and in poor condition. Thankfully, Oliver is now receiving treatment, and we expect his skin to heal beautifully. Tragically, life dealt Oliver another blow when his sister was hit by a car, leaving him alone. Fortunately, one of our dedicated fosters stepped in to give him the warmth and care he desperately needed. For the first time, Oliver is experiencing safety, kindness, and love. Despite his hardships, he is an incredibly sweet little boy, eager to learn what it means to be a cherished family member. He is still discovering the joys of life, and we can't wait to see his personality flourish. Currently on the smaller side, Oliver may grow to be around 40–60 pounds as an adult. He deserves a loving family, a warm home, and a joyful life free from fear or discomfort. As he embraces the playful side of being a puppy, Oliver is ready for a forever home where he can explore, snuggle, and know what love feels like. Could you be the family that gives him the happy ending he truly deserves? Currently fostered in Brownsville, TX. We offer biweekly transport to the East Coast, Midwest, and Pacific Northwest!
