Ollie

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Ollie was a little bit timid when we first pulled him out of a small rural shelter, but my goodness has he come out of his shell! He is friendly to the point of being exuberant -- he wants nothing more than for his people to love him -- hug him, pet him, tell him what a good boy he is. Ollie is still learning the OFF command -- in his excitement he wants to jump up on people, but he's getting much better. He already knows to SIT for treats and for his food bowl to be put down.<br/><br/>Ollie gets along well with other dogs, both male and female. During his time with us, he has shared the play yard with a few different Great Pyrenees, Akbash dogs, a Bernese Mountain Dog, and even a Flat-Coat Retriever mix. So he doesn't seem to discriminate based on breed or color. Ollie seems to ignore our little Yorkie, and he has previously lived in a home with a dog-savvy cat. He even goes into our chicken yard on a regular basis and ignores the chickens!<br/><br/>Ollie is house-trained and does reasonably well on a leash. He has been a good passenger on trips to the vet.<br/><br/>Our best guess based on his looks and temperament is that Ollie is either a Pyrbash (Great Pyrenees mixed with Akbash) or a Pyrador (Great Pyrenees/Labrador mix). He has higher energy than the laid back disposition of a Great Pyrenees, so we think he might be a great companion for walks, maybe for hiking and camping? Though he behaves well on trips to our chicken yard, when we took him to the pasture, Ollie wanted to chase the goats, so he is NOT cut out for life as a livestock guardian. He prefers living in the house and would be a good choice if you have a flock of backyard chickens.<br/><br/>If you need an energetic, people-hugging big dog in your life, then Ollie might be exactly the dog you need. Complete the application on our website and we'll be glad to schedule a time for you to meet this handsome boy!
