“Please sir, I want some more!” Hi everyone ~ my name is Oliver and I’m 5 years old. Like every Golden you’ve ever met, we always want ‘more’ ~ more lovin’ and more food…and that’s me! So, it’s appropriate that I was named after Oliver Twist. When I came into the GR program, I was a pretty dirty, unkempt boy. I also wasn’t used to getting much attention so, meeting lot of lovely people, especially my foster family, was like going to Disneyland for me. Everyone has been so kind. They have cleaned me up (see my photo…pretty handsome right?) and showered me with love and affection. They have also reminded me of all your human rules and ways to behave and I think I’m doing pretty well with all that stuff. For example, I’m a superstar on the leash. I have to admit, however, I am a bit of a thief so if I see a shoe or sock or towel on the floor, I will steal it. It would be a good idea not to have small children in the house right now as they tend to leave stuff laying around. I disagree with them but I will bend to their wisdom. Also, when I get excited, I tend to ‘hump’. My foster mom is working on that with me and I’m starting to understand it is a no-no but it might take me a while to break that habit. I love people and other dogs and am a very sociable boy (I have not been cat-tested). I am gentle with my treats. You can touch me anywhere. Loud noises don’t bother me and you can leave me alone if you have to go out without me (as long as there’s no stuff that I can reach). The doc says I’m a big healthy boy. I feel so great now and I just want more of that too please! That includes a forever family where I will get ‘more’ love forever!
