LOOKING: Cute Oliver Is Looking For His Fur-Ever Family

The Humane Society's Pets Fur People in Tyler has a lovable pup that's waiting to be adopted by a very special East Texas family.

Meet Oliver.

Oliver is almost 8 years old and he's a Papillion mix guy that is still full of excitement and is once again available for adoption.

He is eager to meet his new fur ever family after losing his first owner to a medical condition. Oliver is a pleaser and checks off all the boxes when it comes to being adopted.

When it comes to checking the boxes, this guy checks off several of them:

Oliver plays well with older children
Oliver loves to ride in the car
Oliver loves other dogs
Oliver loves to be around cats
Oliver is housetrained
Oliver knows a few commands - sit and shake
Oliver is kennel-trained
Oliver's veterinarian needs have been taken care of

Pets Fur People's executive director Gayle Helms believes Oliver would thrive in any household because of his gentle disposition.

Oliver will go home with a starter kit of food, a collar, and a leash. For additional information on adopting Oliver call 903.597.2471 or check the Humane Society’s Pets Fur People website. Pets Fur People requires a completed adoption application before arranging a meet and greet.

Check out the animals that are available for adoption. Adoption hours are Tuesday through Saturday 10 am until 5 pm - closed for lunch 1-2 pm. The Humane Society’s Pets Fur People is the only brick-and-mortar no-kill shelter in East Texas. Pets Fur People offers routine vaccinations, except for rabies, to the public for dogs and cats. Follow Pets Fur People on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Please be a responsible pet owner - spay or neuter your pets. Donations are appreciated.
