About Olive

Meet Olive, a sweet Pointer/Hound mix who’s been waiting for her moment to shine. Found as a stray in April, she has gone unnoticed at the Harrison County Dog Pound in Cadiz, OH. Although she's not a purebred, Olive brings a gentle soul to her surroundings. While she may not demand attention, she truly appreciates affection when given. Olive's calm nature often leads her to blend into the background, but she shows her playful side when she spots a squirrel or any critter, ready to chase with curiosity. Currently thriving in the Cell Dog Training program, she's housebroken, fully vetted, and interacts well with children and other dogs. In fact, she recently met some kittens, and her little nub of a tail wagged in excitement as she calmly explored their presence. At 7 years old, Olive is ready to find her forever family. If you think Olive could be the perfect addition to your home, get in touch today!
