ollie

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Calling all active families! Are you looking for a lively, intelligent, and endlessly playful companion? Then say hello to Ollie, a handsome pup with the striking looks of a German Shepherd and a hint of Rottweiler coloring (though his paperwork might say differently!). Ollie is not your typical lap dog. While he adores belly rubs and ear scratches, he's a dog on a mission: to play! He's a true "toy maniac," thriving on interactive playtime, whether it's a spirited game of fetch or an enthusiastic tug-of-war. He'll even entertain himself with toys in his pen, keeping everyone laughing with his playful antics. This energetic boy loves to explore, sniffing out animal tracks and treasures on his daily adventures, and he doesn't mind a bit of cold or snow! Ollie is a dream sleeper, quiet and clean in his crate all night. He's also quite predictable, with a regular potty schedule (requiring outings every 3 hours and after meals). He's diligently working on house-training and will thrive with a consistent routine. Ideal for a family with a large, fenced yard and a commitment to daily exercise, Ollie is ready for hikes, runs, and endless games. If you're seeking an intelligent, engaged dog who promises a lifetime of fun, joy, and a mountain of toys, Ollie is eagerly waiting to meet you! Ollie is from Texas.  If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.

We cannot guarantee the breed or size they will be full grown.* If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 15, 2026, 6:24 pm
