About Oliver of Long Valley, NJ
Status: Adopted! Species: Dog Rescue ID: 16-0012 General Color: White Current Size: 18.6 Pounds Potential Size: 22 Pounds Current Age: 18 Years 2 Months (best estimate)	Location: Long Valley NJ 07853 Microchipped: Yes Housetrained: Yes

Oliver is a delightful boy who came to ERU via a shelter in South Carolina. After some recuperative time with his first foster mom in sunny Florida, where he gained some much needed weight, got lots of loving and had long overdue dental needs addressed, he has come north to continue his healing. He is house trained, fine with other dogs, and can fly like the wind around the backyard.

We will never know for sure what happened to him, but life experience seems to have taught him that people are maybe not so safe, that collars and leashes are a thing to greatly fear, and vets are a source of dread. He is also heartworm positive and receiving the slow kill treatment. He also seems to have some hearing loss.

He is learning that hugs and cuddles are a delightful thing, there will always be food, and working on his overwhelming fear of all things leash and collar related. We are hoping that with time, patience and positive training, he will heal in body and soul, and be adoptable. For now, he is doing well and would be ever so grateful for your sponsorship.

As of July 2016, we have some very good news about Oliver. He is no longer heartworm positive.

Whenever possible Eskie Rescuers United tries to adopt out its dogs locally (or at least to adopters in adjoining states to where I'm being fostered). Please note that ERU processes LOCAL adoption applications before considering those from out of state.

If I'm not local to you, as explained above, and you really have your heart set on me, you will have to make special arrangements so ERU can get me to you safely (for example, flying me to you at your own expense, or paying a transport group to drive me to you). Note: We may ask that you to make a donation to cover transport costs if the distance is great and we have trouble finding transport drivers.

There is an adoption fee required; and, please be aware, Eskie Rescuers United will not adopt out its dogs as outdoor dogs.

Eskie Rescuers United American Eskimo Dog Rescue, Inc. is an IRS-approved 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Please click the donation button below to make a tax-deductible donation through PayPal and help make a difference to even one American Eskimo dog!
