OLLIE is a gorgeous, coated German Shepherd mix, who at just a few months old, was picked up as a stray, but is now looking to find his perfect forever home!

Temperament

Ollie is a sweet boy and super love bug who has the softest coat!  He loves his people, and really wants to be with them as much as possible. Ollie is a typical puppy who's working on potty training, staying off counters and has lots of playful energy.  He loves to snuggle with his foster momma and play with his foster fur siblings.  Ollie was a stray so he likes to guard his food, but is already learning to sit and wait for a release to eat and is figuring out that his days of going hungry are over. He loves to play with the puppy toys and chew on his puppy teething treats.  He has a decent amount of puppy playfulness and energy and would do well to go everywhere his humans can take him, incluing the pet store, dog parks, any place he can get out, socialize, and get more exercise.

Other Animals
Ollie does well with other dogs but may take a minute to feel comfortable around them as he can be overwhelmed by the larger and exuberant dogs. Slow and proper introductions are a must!


Children
Ollie hasn't been around children yet, so will need to be tested. We believe he would be fine living with respectful children (keeping in mind it's important to have good supervision at all times!).

Medical
Ollie is up-to-date on all of his vaccinations and will be neutered when he gets a little older. He's a beautiful, healthy boy!

Ollie is an amazing boy who is waiting for the right person or family to come along and discover how wonderful he is!  He promises to be a fabulous companion to one very lucky family.  Apply now if you feel you'd be a great match with him!

 

OLIVER'S ADOPTION FEE: $300
This fee covers only part of what we spend to vet, board and rehab the dogs we save. On average we spend over $450 on each dog. We made a decision to keep our adoption fee at the 2005 level even though vet prices have doubled and tripled since then. We are constantly fundraising to cover the deficit. At minimum, your adoption fee includes the dog's spay/neuter, heartworm test, heartworm treatment if needed, rabies shot, distemper/parvo shot, bordatella shot, deworming, monthly heartworm and flea preventives, and microchip. In many cases it also includes surgery and various types of vet treatment for standard issues such as hot spots, ear infections and so on.

STOP!! READ THIS BEFORE YOU GO ANY FURTHER!

  1. We're picky about our adopters. 
  2. Are you sure you're up to having a GSD?  They're not for everyone.  They take a lot of time, effort, training.  They shed year round.  They're big.  They scare lots of people.  They "mouth" and herd.  They're usually strong-willed and stubborn.  You have to have references and a home visit.  If you're not willing or able to deal with any of this, please don't waste your time or ours applying.  
  3. Will the dog be an inside family pet? We do not adopt to outdoor-only homes. All dogs must be indoor dogs.
  4. Do you leave your dog outdoors when you're not home?   We do not adopt to homes that leave their animals outside when they're gone.  You must put your dogs indoors when you're gone.  A 3 yr old adopted MOGS dog died when the owners went to run errands, left her outdoors, the gate was somehow opened, and she was hit by a car.  Tragic and 100% preventable. Even privacy fences get broken into.  Gates are opened.  Thieves steal dogs. Never leave your dog outdoors when you're not home!!
  5. What's your plan for unexpected events and major changes?  New baby? Divorce?  Moving?   How you will provide for your dog if your family breaks up? 
  6. Will you make a lifetime commitment?  It's your responsibility to keep your dog safe, loved and cared for FOR LIFE.
  7.  Do you understand we expect you to keep that lifetime commitment?  It's YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to stick by your family member -- no matter what.
  8. Are you unable or unwilling to make a lifetime commitment? Do not apply.
