Notes from Rose Acres Rescue

Meet Oliver – The Gentle Giant with a Big Heart

Oliver is a handsome 10-year-old Great Dane/Pointer mix who weighs about 75 lbs. He’s a big boy with an even bigger heart! Oliver gets along wonderfully with dogs and kids of all ages, though he’s not a fan of cats.

He’s currently polishing his skills — working on sit, stay, kennel, and no jumping, along with crate training and housebreaking. This smart, eager-to-please boy just wants to make his humans proud!

Oliver’s story began when he and his 10 siblings were found in a box by a mailbox at only 10 days old. Most of his littermates found homes right away, but somehow Oliver was overlooked — and he’s been patiently waiting ever since for the family that’s meant to be his.

Oliver has been neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, and is heartworm negative.

Adoption Fee: $250

If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who’s full of life and affection, Oliver is ready to fill your home with joy — he’s waited long enough for his happily ever after!
