I would never skip a Pekinese when I see one at the care center. I know they can be a little temperamental but we have always been a match. Oliver(what a pretty name) is no exception but he is a Pek with a twist… He did growl at some staff here and there but I know why… Oliver is a middle aged guy with a disability. He waddled like a duck(probably a hip or a knee problem) and his vision is quite poor. I love his big button eyes, though. Oliver was brought by a Good Samaritan who was feeding him in his backyard. After looking for an owner he never found, the finder brought Oliver to us. Oliver barked at me at first. I sweet talked him and he lodged himself like a dream in my arms. Although his back is almost naked, the rest of his latte coat is plush , silky and clean. Oliver loves treats. He smells them more than he sees them. He does bump into things but is a great trooper and accelerates his speed when I make encouraging sounds. He looks them like a little torpedo. Oliver enjoys caresses and the arms and purrs when I scratch him under the chin. I really love this little guy and I hope that you will too. Being physically challenged, Oliver will need a caring and understanding owner or foster. He is all worth your love and is waiting patiently to meet you soon.
