My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Oliver is a sweet but sensitive dog who experiences separation anxiety, often displaying signs of distress when left alone, such as scratching doors, digging at carpets, and whining. He has made significant progress with crate training and is doing well in that environment. Oliver tends to bond closely with his owner and can be reserved around strangers, requiring time to warm up to new people and situations. While he has shown some nervous behavior in response to being approached unexpectedly, he is otherwise well-behaved and good at the vet. Oliver would do best in a calm, patient home where his anxiety can be managed with love and consistency, and where he can feel secure and gradually build trust with new people.

More about this shelter

Founded in 1949, Humane Society of the Pikes Region is the largest animal welfare group for homeless and abused animals in Southern Colorado, comprising of two campuses – one in Colorado Springs and one in Pueblo – as well as animal control offices in Centennial and Douglas County. HSPPR is a local, independent nonprofit not affiliated with national organizations such as ASPCA or Humane Society of the United States and relies on donations to fund its work. Passionate and dedicated staff rescue and care for animals in distress, provide medical care for abused and injured animals, reunite lost pets with their owners, find loving homes for homeless animals, and investigate animal cruelty and enforce animal ordinances.

As an open admission shelter, HSPPR helps all animals in need – no animal is turned away. That’s more than 26,000 animals a year affected by the mission. HSPPR works every day to end the euthanasia of unwanted animals through extensive community outreach and innovative programs. You can help by encouraging friends and families to adopt a homeless pet, volunteering your time or supporting our life-saving programs by making a donation. We are better together.
