About Olive

Olive is a playful and affectionate girl who brings a lot of joy wherever she goes. She thrives in the company of people and other dogs, embracing life with a gentle silliness. Although she can take her time to warm up to new folks, her loving nature shines through once she feels comfortable. Olive has a special need when it comes to her living environment—she cannot be crated. She’s much happier roaming freely, and having access to a doggy door would make her feel at home. While she gets along well with children and dogs, she doesn’t mix well with cats. Olive is looking for a forever home where she can truly be herself.
