"Oliver" - Foster to Adopt


 

His name is "Oliver"...

The meaning of "Oliver" - "Olive Tree"

Why we named him after the "Olive Tree"...



"That the olive signifies the good of charity, is evident from the signification in the Word not only of an olive, but also of oil. It was with olive oil, together with spices, that the priests and kings were anointed, and it was with olive oil that the lamps were trimmed (Exod. 30:24; 27:20). The reason olive oil was used for anointing and for lamps was that it represented all that is celestial, and therefore all the good of love and of charity; for the oil is the very essence of the tree, and is as it were its soul, just as the celestial, or the good of love and of charity, is the very essence or the very soul of faith; and hence oil has this representation. That oil signifies what is celestial, or the good of love and of charity, may be confirmed from many passages of the Word; but as it is the olive-tree that is mentioned here, we will merely present some passages that confirm its signification"



Oliver loves kids!

Oliver is a young male Pit Bull terrier that was transferred from Orange County with a severe case of Demodex mange. It took a group effort, but he was pulled from the shelter and taken to his foster mom, Tonja, for some much needed TLC.

As you can see, Oliver has been thriving under her care and is now ready for his forever home!
