Meet Olive, the petite jewel of the furry world! 🌟 This darling girl is a gentle sweetheart who’s still figuring out her way in the big, beautiful world. At just 38 pounds, she’s the perfect “medium” size, and people are often surprised at just how tiny she is when they meet her. Yep, this really is as big as she’s gonna get! Now, let’s talk about her hobbies! 🐶 Olive absolutely lights up while riding in the car, going for her twice-a-day walks, and let’s not forget—she just loves chasing a ball in the backyard! 🏃‍♀️ She’ll dash after it with the joy of a child, although don’t count on her to bring it all the way back; she likes to keep it interesting! 😂 After those adventures, Olive is a true couch potato ready to snuggle as you binge-watch your latest favorite show. She’s already housetrained and gently takes treats like a little lady, and with her love for predictability, routine is her best friend. Having spent a remarkable time in her foster home, Olive is on a journey of growth. With each new experience—visiting pet-friendly shops or meeting new friends—she builds her confidence. However, it’s important to note that she’s still a soft-hearted soul, so she’d do best with an adopter who can be her advocate as she gets comfortable in new surroundings. If you can create a safe space for her, trust and confidence will blossom—though don’t be surprised if she needs several meet-and-greets to really embrace you. Once she does, expect some tail-wagging and joy that will light up your world! 🐾 Olive is a dog who adores the company of her fellow canines. 🐕 Her furry friends play an essential role in her confidence-building, serving as her comforting guide: “Is this person safe? Is this situation okay?” Given this, we believe Olive will truly thrive in a home with a friendly, well-balanced dog who can show her the ropes. When it comes to her people preferences, Olive has a soft spot for women and has warmed up more easily to them. Now, while she currently resides with a man, there’s a bit of a toleration vibe going on, so she’d likely feel most at home in an all-female household. Oh, and let’s be clear: her kingdom must be feline-free! 🐱 Olive is simply too intrigued by cats to snuggle peacefully. While Olive enjoys the presence of calm, gentle kids she meets during outings, she’d thrive in a home with older, dog-savvy children who understand that patience is key. Remember, sudden noises and sharp movements can make her shy, so taking it slow is how you'll win her heart. ❤️ Olive has already triumphed over so much, and each day brings her one step closer to blossoming into an even more magnificent friend. With patience and a steady hand—and ideally, a confident canine companion—this sweet girl will flourish beyond measure. The bond forged with Olive will be incredibly special, and interchangeable trust is deep and rewarding. 🌈 So, if you're ready to embark on this beautiful journey together, apply through the Buddy App to meet Olive!
