Olive is the most wonderful little dog! She has a soft and loving nature that causes everyone that she meets to fall in love with her. Olive is always looking for someone to cuddle her and she just loves to be by your side like the loyal companion that she is. She enjoys accompanying her foster carers out and about, visiting cafes, restaurants, and markets. Olive has wonderful manners out and about. She is very calm and when you stop somewhere she will just lie under your chair and relax. In the evenings, she loves to snuggle up on the couch with you while you watch TV.
While in foster care, Olive has been living with another older friendly dog and has met a range of other dogs. She is beautifully neutral out and about, happy to walk on by another dog but also happy to say hello if they come over too. Olive enjoys having a play with another friendly and playful mate, but is also happy just to curl up and relax next to her friend as well. Olive is a pretty chilled dog but does still need a nice daily walk to keep her happy and healthy. She is currently just 12kg in size and is a good weight.
Olive has her basic manners mastered. She can sit on command, comes to being called and walks nicely on the lead. While in care, Olive has been touching up her toilet training. She is progressing well but her new owners will need to continue with good routines to keep her on track and establish good habits in her new home. Olive sleeps throughout the night without a peep and she travels well in the car, making her a great buddy to take along for rides and adventures.
We are looking for a dog savvy home for Olive where she will be a loved member of the family. She can live with another friendly adult dog or as an only dog. Regardless, she would love a home where someone is home more often than not for companionship as she truly loves being with her people. In saying that, she has no issue being left home alone for shorter periods of time. Olive should be allowed inside to be with the family and will need a warm comfy bed inside to sleep on at night.
Olive is suitable for a range of homes, as long as she is taken out for exercise regularly and given plenty of love and attention from her people. She is very social and friendly with everyone she meets so will make a great addition to her new household. Olive did spend a short time in a foster home with a cat so with the right introduction and supervision, she should be able to live with a dog friendly cat. This girl is a real catch, and her new owner will be very lucky indeed.
If you would like to make this beautiful loving girl a part of your family, then please complete a Dog Adoption Enquiry form on the Fetching Dogs website as the first step. Please include plenty of detail about your previous dog experience, current household members and the type of lifestyle that Olive would have with you. Please note that we will only be short listing a small number of applicants to interview via phone as we are all volunteers.
