Pet of the Week

Oliver

Oliver is a 2-year-old male Chihuahua mix (ID # 42406). He is very loveable, adorable and in need of a home and a family. He had a rough start in life, so he has a hard time trusting people at first. He has been with a foster family for a couple of months and they have taught him to love, trust, play with other dogs, ride in the truck and watch TV. He is now a happy little dog, and once he gets to know you he is a loyal companion who likes to be cuddled (and, if allowed, wants to be in close under the covers!). Oliver is available for adoption from the Escondido Humane Society, 3450 E. Valley Parkway. He is currently in foster care. If you are interested in learning more about him e-mail julieh@escondidohumanesociety.org, call (760) 888-2247 or log on to www.escondidohumanesociety.org.

Yes, they are cutie pies. And they’re so new they don’t yet have names. We’ll leave that to you. Naming a kitten is a special act, best left to the new kitten’s family of humans. Check them out! At the Escondido Humane Society
