Oliver

Oliver is a 3 year old blue heeler that my Wife and I got from a local farm. He has had all of his vaccines and is neutered, but we are making the decision to rehome him as we are not a good fit. When we first got him we had more free time, less job responsibilities, and were able to better care for his needs. As we have both grown in our professions we only have 3 hours a day to be able to spend with him and this is not a good life for a dog that requires a lot of interaction and exercise.
