My story

PWRESCUE.ORG Meet Ollie – A Little Dog with a Whole Lot of Love to Give! Ollie is a 3-year-old, 13-pound sweetheart with an unforgettable underbite that makes him just as unique on the outside as he is on the inside. A mix of Shih Tzu, Poodle, and Terrier, this charming little fellow is the best of all worlds—affectionate, fun-loving, and full of personality. At first, Ollie may seem a bit reserved, but give him just a little time and patience, and you’ll discover the devoted companion hiding behind that shy exterior. Once he trusts you, Ollie becomes a loyal sidekick who loves nothing more than being close to his person, happily following them from room to room as if to say, “Wherever you go, I’m going too!” Ollie’s days are filled with simple joys. He enjoys leisurely walks where he can explore the neighborhood at his own pace, car rides, and playful backyard zoomies that show off his silly side. If another dog is willing to join in, Ollie is all for it—he loves a good chase! He’s also a fan of fetch, though he might enjoy the game as much for the attention as the ball. After his adventures, Ollie is quick to settle in for cuddles, soaking up every bit of affection you’re willing to share. This little guy has a special soft spot for kids. In his foster home, Ollie has proven to be incredibly gentle and affectionate with the children, happily joining in their play or snuggling close when it’s time to rest. His joyful personality shines brightest when his people come home—Ollie greets them with his signature happy dance, spinning in little circles as if to say, “I missed you so much!” When nighttime rolls around, Ollie is happiest curled up right next to his person, drifting off to sleep knowing he’s safe and loved. He would thrive in a home where someone is around often and enjoys a moderately active lifestyle and would love another playful pup to hang out with. Older, respectful kids get Ollie’s paw print of approval as well. If you’ve been dreaming of a pint-sized best friend who can make you laugh with his zoomies, melt your heart with his loyalty, and warm your lap during cuddle time, Ollie is ready to meet you. He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. Apply to adopt at https://pwrescue.org under the “Adoption Application” tab. . Pathways Home Animal Rescue September 18, 2025, 11:55 pm

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Ollie, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
