Meet Ollie, a 10-month-old wire-haired Terrier mix with 12 lbs of puppy energy, scruffy charm, and love to give! This playful little guy loves walkies, toys, and a good game of tug—and once you’ve earned his trust, he’s a champion cuddler. 🥰

Ollie can be shy around new people and likes to stay close to those he knows and trusts. But sit down, call his name gently, and offer a few treats… and you’re well on your way to becoming his new bestie! 💛

A little more about our scruffy little sweetheart:

🐶 Dog friends: Currently lives with other dogs and enjoys playing tug-of-war with them. Slow, steady introductions help him feel comfortable. He may bark when first meeting a dog, but usually settles once play begins. He could do well as an only dog or with friendly small dogs.

🎾 Playtime: Active, energetic, and always ready for toys, walkies, and puppy fun!

✅ Medical: Neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.

🏡 Potty training: About 90% potty-trained! A consistent routine and patient guidance will help him keep making progress.

🚗 Car rides: Does well in the car—ready to ride along on your next adventure!

💤 Crate training: Still learning that a crate can be a cozy, comfortable space. His foster family is helping him practice with short periods of crate time.

💛 Kids: Enjoys interacting with children and previously lived with little ones. Because of his small size, we believe a home with children over 6 years old would suit him best.

Ollie is still a baby, learning his way in a big world. He’s looking for a loving, active, and patient family who will help him build confidence, learn his puppy manners, and feel safe and cherished. In return? Plenty of playtime, sweet cuddles, and one devoted little best friend. 🐾

Ollie is available through foster-to-adopt only, giving you time to get to know each other before making it official. His adoption fee is $150, and he’ll come home with all the doggo essentials and a training package to help him settle in and continue to learn to be a goooooood boy for you. 🥰🏡
