Pack Ethic  

Oliver was a victim of horrific abuse at the hands of his vicious owner. Oliver suffered both physically and mentally due to the torture inflicted on him. This noble Great Dane then had to wait for five months in an animal shelter while his case was undergoing investigation. Fortunately his owner was charged with animal cruelty - although we do wish that the punishment was harsher than a year in jail. It is Oliver who maintains his scars for a lifetime. Fortunately, Oliver has been released for rehabilitation. We were happy to step in and offer Oliver the calm and stable environment of our home and our pack. Although he has suffered so dramatically - with the right handling and in the right environment - he can now be a dog again and still find inspiration in each new moment. Oliver has already shown us that he does want to trust and love again unconditionally.  

 Here with us - Oliver wants nothing more than to share the love that he has to give. He is one of the sweetest and most loyal dogs in our pack. Oliver wants nothing more than to please.

Oliver wants nothing more than to be in the center of his new pack. We are so glad to be his balanced core from which he can begin to learn about life with humans all over again. This time - he will get all the love and appreciation that this noble gentleman deserves.

Oliver has inspired both citizens and politicians alike to fight for the animals...

Albany Legislator Bryan M. Clenahan has introduced legislation to create a registry of convicted animal abusers in Albany County which would be maintained by the Mohawk Hudson Humane Society. The nation's first and NY State's only such registry was established in Suffolk County last year. 

Clenahan was inspired by Suffolk County's approach to the animal abuse problem and the recent case involving Oliver.
