Ollie

Ollie is a sweet and goofy 3-year-old German Shepherd/Great Pyrenees mix who’s ready to find his forever home! This big cuddle bug loves nothing more than snuggling up in bed with his foster mom, but he’s just as happy going for walks or enjoying a relaxing bath. Ollie has a playful, silly side too—he’ll lay right down in the pool on hot days to cool off, chew on squishy pillows like they’re the best toy in the world, and proudly show off his tricks like “shake” and “high-five.” If you’re looking for a loyal, mellow, and affectionate companion with a dash of goofiness, this lovely gentle giant just might be your perfect match.

Ideal Home

Ollie would do wonderfully in a home by himself, or with other dogs to play with. He would do great in an active home that will provide the love, structure, good leadership, activity and mental stimulation that his breed needs. German Shepherd dogs, as well as other herding breeds, require considerable vetting, exercise, socialization, training, leadership and mental stimuli in order to be well-adjusted, well-balanced, and well-mannered dogs.

Ongoing Health

Ollie's adoption fee includes being neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, fecal, deworming, flea/tick and heartworm preventative, heartworm tested if old enough (and treated if positive), and microchipped.

Training & Support

Even if you exercise and play with your dog daily in your fenced yard, you MUST still take your dog out on daily walks and outings in order to work on his/her leash skills, manners, and social skills. It is important to provide sufficient stimulation, ward off boredom, and work on leash skills, and manners. If you are new to German Shepherds (and other herding breeds), please research the breed to make sure this is the dog for you. We ask that you consider the time and financial commitment that your German Shepherd (or other herding breed) dog will require before applying for one.
