Meet Oliver

Oliver is a laid-back guy who seems to enjoy the company of other dogs in a calm and gentle way. From our observations, he tends to be a bit timid at first but warms up once he gets comfortable, and he shows good manners and does well on leash. He may not be the most cuddly pup right away, but his sweet and social nature shines through as he settles in. Contact us about Oliver today! Due to capacity at the shelter, this pet is currently at risk for euthanasia. We are urgently seeking placement through adoption, foster, or approved rescue. If you are interested in adopting, fostering, or rescuing this dog, please email dasadopt@dallas.gov as soon as possible. When emailing, be sure to include a callback phone number so our team can contact you promptly.
