Oleander (Ollie for short) is your snuggle buddy, walking partner, and work-from-home coworker, all wrapped in one adorably fuzzy package. Ollie loves all people, kids included, and doesn't play favorites unless it's dinner time ... then his favorite is whoever has the food! Ollie is looking for a companion who has the time to give him back all the love he wants to give to them. He'd also be happy with a fluffy friend and partner-in-playtime and he is great with both cats and dogs.

Years ago Ollie recovered from a spinal injury that had initially left him paralyzed. He still has some weakness in his back end, but does well with lots of rugs on the floor for stability. He is also responding well to laser treatments to increase his mobility. Ollie is on a few medications for his arthritis, thyroid, and kidneys but takes his meds like a champ! He has some nighttime anxiety as well but that is managed well with supplements.

Oleander came to us when his guardians realized he would be happier and healthier in a home without a large dog brother. Being bumped into and knocked down sometimes was not the best thing for his back, so his guardians made the difficult decision to rehome him.
