Many of you watched the video "Animal Rescue in Curaçao #11". In this video Ollie had the lead and he was being rescued by a team of very kind people from the place he was dumped a few months prior. We thought he was very timid which meant he could temporarily stay at Animal Protection. That way he could be evaluated in a safe manner, to see what his character was like and if he could be placed.
Even before catching him we were approached by Marja, who admitted to having fallen in love with Ollie. She also indicated that, if his demeanor allowed it, he could come live with her and her husband.
They took great care of him at Animal Protection and he underwent and passed some important health tests whilst there. His character turned out to be good and Ollie quickly showed he was just a nice and loving lug who wants nothing more than attention.
Last week Ollie, now named Buddha, was allowed to go to his new home and meet the 3 female dogs already in residence. He has a ways to go but we have plenty of confidence that Buddha will turn out just fine. With the right attention he will quickly develop into a snuggly pet. Buddha has his on Facebook page where you can follow his new life: Buddha " the Awakened".
