NAME:  Olivia

GENDER:  Female

AGE:  6-8 months

DOGS/CATS:  Olivia can be bossy, but enjoys the other dogs in her foster home; she does okay with cats.

CHILDREN:  At adoption events, she has been very friendly towards children, but there are no children in her foster home.

 

Olivia is a long-legged, active little girl.  She was very thin at a little over 5 lbs. when she came from the shelter, but she is filling out nicely, so probably weighs about 6 lbs. now.  Because she was so thin, she really likes food, so can be a little pushy when food and other dogs are involved; when treats are dispensed, she walks around the kitchen on her hind legs to make sure she doesn't miss a thing!

 

Olivia loves to play with her foster siblings and toys.  She tries to intimidate newcomers, but quickly understands that she cannot do that; after that, she acts like they have always been there.  She can be shy around new people, but warms up very quickly with lots of kisses. 

She will potty outside, but works really hard to use puppy pads if they are offered. 

 

If you are looking for a sweet, fun companion, then Olivia is your girl.  She would do best with older children who have some experience with small dogs.  Olivia is waiting for her forever home; are you waiting for a forever friend?

 

Olivia is spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, and on HW preventative.
