Adopt Special Needs Yorkie with a Heart of Gold: Oliver
🐶 Meet Oliver – A Loving Boy Who Needs a Hero
We are looking for a very special and dedicated home for Oliver, a handsome 7-year-old male Yorkshire Terrier. This 5.9kg boy is full of love and gets along wonderfully with other dogs. However, Oliver has some specific health challenges that require a committed and compassionate owner.
Oliver is treated for seizures with medication (+-R60pm - last seizure was February 2025) Like many small dogs, he does an endearing "reverse sneeze" when he gets very excited. He is a vocal boy who is looking for a patient family who can provide the stability, care, and medical support he needs to live his best life. Adopting a dog with special needs is an incredible act of love, and Oliver is more than ready to repay that kindness with endless devotion.
💖 Oliver’s Personality and Special Requirements
-
Age: 7 years old (Born May 2018)
-
Temperament: Loving, excitable, and vocal.
-
Health Needs: Manages seizures with medication (+-R60pm - last seizure was February 2025) and a hip issue, so no stairs (losing weight would also be good for him, as he should weigh +- 4.5kg 😍). Experiences reverse sneezing when excited. Requires a dedicated owner prepared for his medical care.
-
Good with Dogs: Yes.
-
Good with Cats: Can be supervised around cats
-
Good with Children: He has not been exposed to children, so a calm, adult-only home is preferred to best manage his health.
-
Housetraining: Still in progress; he may lift his leg.
-
Ideal Home: A patient and stable home with an owner who can provide routine veterinary care and lots of love. A house with a yard is best and no stairs.
❤️ The Unconditional Love of a Special Dog
Oliver is not defined by his health conditions; he is a loving dog who deserves a chance at a happy, secure life. For the right person, providing him with the care he needs will be a deeply rewarding experience. He is ready to be a loyal and loving companion to the hero who is willing to open their heart and home to him.
