My sweet Oliver. I need to rehome him asap, I had attempted in any and then decided to try again and keep him but it’s not working.
My hours at work are not stable to attend to him. He’s home several hours a time alone, I constantly move from different cities/states even countries and it’s hard on him and me.
Oliver had been pottied trained but with constant moving he’s having a lot of accidents now and it’s frustrating for both him and myself.
He is not neutered. Economically I haven’t been able to afford it. I realized he had gotten fleas at the dog park through home remedies I was able to get rid of a handful I see about 3 on his stomach. I have not been able to take him to the vet to get treated again because of costs.
I just want him to have a good life where he will give and be taken care of properly.
