Ollie's Story

Ollie is a 4 year old Portuguese Podengo. He may be a pint sized dog at roughly 30 lbs, but he has a large personality. Ollie would thrive in a moderately active yet quiet home environment where he can get lots of walks and playtime as well as plenty of time to relax and take naps. Ollie can be a little shy around new people and environments but tends to adjust well given time. Due to Ollie's past experiences he has a very hard time trusting men and would do best in a female only home or with an experienced adopter that can work with his fears help him find confidence. Ollie does ok with other dogs but can be overwhelming to some. He is very playful that loves doing zoomies with his favorite toys and splashing around in a kiddie pool. He is also one of the biggest cuddle bugs and loves getting pet and taking naps. Ollie is really the best of both worlds if given some time and patience, he is sure to win your heart. <br/><br/>* Fast Friends adopts in the New England area. If you are interested in Ollie or one of our other available dogs, please complete an adoption application at www.helpinggreyhounds.org/adopt
