The Love of my Life

A little over 7 years ago, I fell in love. His name is Oliver. we became quick friends, we would run around, chase balls, bark at cars. His is literly my best friend. This is the story how I got my little small dog.

I was living in Sioux falls, SD with my uncles going to cosmetology school. I had done a service project though the college with the human society and it got my mind thinking… I want to rescue a dog. I started searching the web. I saw that a local center had just received a ton of puppies from a puppy mill. I contacted them almost immediately. they told me i could come down in a couple days because they needed to finish up all the evaluations on the pups. I went that next week and this little man caught my eye. he was so cute! we had an immediate bond.

he was very malnourished and we had to work on trust. they poor guy had never see the outside world before he was removed. he had never left the cage. he has come such a long ways. he is still afraid of large men which makes me cirious what he went through before i had him. he is very full of personality. he scoffs at me almost every day and still barks at absoulty nothing. but at the end of the night he sleeps in my arms or between my feet. we have had a very happy 7 years together and im hoping for 7 or more years with him.
