Ollie was a former ADL dog who came back to us through no fault of his own. He would do well with other dogs in the home but could be a solo pet in a home that was active and attentive to him. Though he’s a senior, no one has clued Ollie in on that and he’s an active pup who loves to be outdoors. He would do best in a home that likes to spend lots of time outdoors (gardening, hiking, walking), he’s not ready to be a couch potato anytime soon :) Ollie is scheduled for oral surgery on 9/11 and will be able to go to his forever home after.
