Story
BROCCOLI IS HIS FAVORITE TREAT DOB 6/25/14, weight 12 pounds Hey there, everyone! I’m Oliver, an affectionate, charming, confident “harlequin” Pekingese mix fella who enjoys being my foster mom’s constant companion. “Harlequin” means that I’m mostly white with dark gray on my ears and unusual round gray dots on my back. I’ve got an adorable face, if I do say so myself, with my short muzzle and big, dark eyes. We “Pekes” develop tight bonds with our favorite hoomans, and I’m no exception. I enjoy when Foster Mom grooms me as well as coos sweet nothings in my ear. I’m enthusiastic about our car rides, and I’m a big fan of fruits and veggies. Yes, tomatoes, carrots, and especially broccoli are all treats for me! I’m so very grateful that she scooped me up and took me home when she found out that my family had dropped me off at the vet in order to be euthanized. This abandonment was very devastating to me because I’m healthy and thought that I was a member of their family. I can only assume that they didn’t want me or couldn’t afford even a small pet anymore. Fortunately Foster Mom was very patient with me and allowed me to adjust to my new “digs” at my own pace. I’m a chill guy who likes to be a couch potato and sleep to my heart’s content. I have free run of the house at night, and I sleep in my bed at the foot of her bed. I enjoy sleeping in my kennel, but I prefer that the door be left open. Being locked up in my crate triggers memories of my being cooped up for long periods of time while my previous owners were at work, so I’ll bark until I’m freed. I get along great with the multiple dogs and cats in my foster home, although we all do our own thing. My ideal home could be a single, couple, or family with kids seven years of age or older. If the adults are retired or if someone works from home, that would be an extra bonus because I’m so people-oriented. Another cat or dog companion would be fine, although I know there are perks of being an only pet-child. If you’re looking for a compact fur-buddy of undying loyalty and many subtle delights, I’m your man! Arrange to meet me today! My heart has so much love to give – all I need is YOU!
