About Ollie

Meet Ollie, a sweet and affectionate Xolo mix who's ready to steal your heart. With his unique and large ears, he stands out, but it’s his playful spirit and funny antics that truly make him special. At around 28 pounds, this clever pup jumps at the chance for games like fetch, tug-of-war, and getting creative with empty plastic water bottles. He thrives on attention and was the center of his owners' world for years. However, since a baby joined the family, Ollie has been struggling with sharing the spotlight. He would do best as the only furry companion in a home because he doesn’t particularly enjoy the company of other dogs. Ollie is friendly with children and makes a great family pet. He does fine home alone even if he feels a bit anxious at times. Ollie is housebroken and enjoys shorter walks, and he loves to solve puzzles and learn new tricks for treats. Ollie is located in Kingwood, TX, and is ready for his new adventure. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
