About Ollie

Meet Ollie, an affectionate Xoloitzcuintli mix looking for a forever home. At 6 years old, this charming boy captivates everyone with his large ears and playful personality. Weighing about 38 pounds, he brings joy with his entertaining antics, whether it’s fetching balls, exploring empty plastic bottles, or engaging in tug-of-war with his squeaky toys. Ollie loves being the center of attention. Recently, he has needed to adjust to sharing his space after a new baby arrived. He would thrive best in a home as the only furry companion since he prefers solitude over the company of other dogs. Ollie enjoys shorter walks, puzzles, and learning new tricks for treats. Though he may feel anxious when you're leaving, he’s perfectly fine being home alone. Housebroken and great with school-aged children, Ollie is ready to fill your home with love. Ollie is currently in Kingwood, TX, and available for transport. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
