About Olive

Meet Olive, the miniature Schnauzer with a vibrant personality and an even bigger appetite for companionship. At just 4 years old and 11 pounds, she's a true Velcro baby. Whether you're sitting down, getting up, or even using the bathroom, count on Olive to be right there by your side. She's adorable, a bit invasive in the cutest way, and absolutely loved by everyone who meets her. Olive embodies all the classic Schnauzer traits—she's got opinions, a ton of personality, and an endless capacity for love. This girl needs an owner who's familiar with the breed; after all, Schnauzers are not just pets but tiny, bearded supervisors who thrive on attention. When Olive arrived, her skin was in rough shape, likely due to allergies or flea dermatitis. She has since received treatment, including a Cytopoint injection, and her skin is healing well. Prospective adopters should be ready to manage any ongoing allergy issues as they arise. This spayed sweetheart is fully vaccinated and heartworm negative. She's not interested in part-time relationships; she wants her person, their lap, and a lifetime of being a devoted companion. Who wouldn't want this little bearded shadow brightening their days for the next decade or more? Ready to make Olive a cherished member of your family?
