Ollie

My story

*This dog is scheduled to arrive in Grimsby, Ontario on Saturday, June 28*Apply to adopt at rebeldogrescue.com*All adoptions with Rebel Dog Rescue have a 15 day probation period. Read about our adoption process on our website. This sweet guy was found as a stray. He has settled quickly and easily into the routines at his foster home. He loves leash walks but also will follow his foster through 4 rooms to get to the door to go outside in the yard to play or potty. He likes to sit on a bed close by and chill as she works and loves affection but does not bug for attention. He is adorable, friendly, overall calm. He lives with multiple other dogs in foster care and has done very well. He hasn't been overly playful and kind of just does his own this. He hasn't shown any notable behaviour issues other than some marking, which we hope will subside after he is neutered.
