Our Muttsterpiece gallery at Barktoberfest was a big fat bust, so we've decided to follow the advice we crowdsourced from all of you...

🥁 Presenting O&Co Muttsterpiece Auction! 🥁

We know many of you have been following the journeys of the O&Co dogs closely, and we'd love to share a piece of their story with the supporters who helped them get here. Every dollar earned goes right back to the artists, specifically to Wyatt's knees.

The auction runs from 9/15 at 7:00pm through 9/19 at 7:00pm. We'll coordinate pick ups/drop offs with the winners (must live within 30 minutes of Milwaukee for a drop off) or you can pick up at one of our upcoming events.

You can access via https://givebutter.com/c/muttsterpiece/auction.

Let the bidding begin!

Willa, Bruce, and Sylvie had the very best time at Barktoberfest + Walk Run Wag on Saturday. Thanks to everyone who stopped by to say hi or donate (or help us pick up the posters that kept blowing down 🫠).

Huge thank you to Milwaukee Area Domestic Animal Control Commission (MADACC) for having us!

If you missed us, we’ll be at Paw Fest benefitting our friends at Winston's Wishes on Saturday!

This is the language to look for when you’re on the hunt for a trainer. 👏🏻

Not “I can fix that in X weeks.” Not “You’re the pack leader.” Not “I’ll teach you to control your dog.” Definitely not “Let’s use an ecollar (shock collar), prong collar, or [insert stimulation collar here].”

Meet them where they are. Give them choices. Let them decide when they’re ready. Build a relationship and work WITH your dog. We weren’t given dogs to control their every thought, move, and choice.

We’ve worked with Tailblazers Behavior Consulting with a number of our dogs and don’t have enough good things to say. Check them out!

Oh, Clyde. It really is so heartbreaking that he hasn't found his family yet. Clyde has been with us for 349 days. He is such a sweetheart, but like a lot of dogs, is just SO JAZZED at meet and greets that he doesn't give the greatest first impression. Little do the applicants who passed on him know that if you give him some time, he'll happily lay on the couch all day long. He's the best little couch potato.

Clyde is leash reactive. Not aggressively. More in an 'oh boy FRIENDS' way. Does this come off a little nutty? Yes. Is he working on it and improving? Also yes. Is it a punch in the gut every time we see an applicant's face fall when he reacts during a meet? Big time.

All dogs take time to settle in. Given the chance, we've seen Clyde live very comfortably with other dogs. He just needs someone willing to give him a little bit of time and a real shot.

Clyde just 'turned' seven. He deserves to live out his golden years in his forever home. Please share.

He's ready! Bruce has done such an amazing job settling into foster and making himself right at home. He has shown no signs of resource guarding with any of the humans in the household*, and we are just so proud of him and excited for him to find his place in the world.

Looking for a companion who is smart, loyal, handsome, and available?? Bruce is all of those and more!

He’s medium energy, curious, and ready to learn — the perfect partner for someone who enjoys training and keeping their dog’s brain and body busy. This young guy plays well with other dogs and may do well with a cat.

Bruce has had a rough life and has had needed to fight for resources to survive. He sometimes has a hard time sharing his favorite things. Bruce has shown occasional resource guarding in previous environments, so he will need a home without small kids that is committed to positive reinforcement training.

With some patience and guidance, Bruce will give you his goofy play bows, devotion, and a lifetime of adventures!

🕐 Approx 1 yr old
⚖️ 60 lbs
🚽 Housebroken
🏡 Crate trained
🐶 Friendly with dogs
👫 Friendly with strangers
😸 Cats unknown

More info + to apply: www.olyverandco.org/adoptables.

*This does not mean Bruce does not guard his resources and that you should stick your hands in his mouth. It means, with proper management, he's a very good boy.
