About this Dog
Meet Ollie! Ollie is a charming 3-year-old Pocket Pitty/Chocolate Lab mix with a heart full of love and a playful spirit. Ollie adores attention—he loves being petted, kissed, and snuggled, and he’ll happily soak up all the affection you have to offer. Playful with both people and dogs, Ollie is easygoing and tolerant, even when it comes to having his feet handled. He has no resource guarding issues and enjoys treats, toys, and rawhides. His absolute favorite? Squeaky toys! Ollie never tires of creating his own squeaky symphony and takes great joy in tearing them apart—so supervised play is a must. Here’s a video of Ollie playing and another video of Ollie playing. Ollie is almost fully potty trained and will softly whine or bark to let you know when he needs to go outside. He sleeps quietly in his kennel at night but appreciates an early morning potty break. Smart and eager to learn, Ollie knows his name, responds to "kennel" and "sit," and is excited to pick up new tricks and commands. An active, adventurous boy, Ollie thrives in a home with a fenced-in yard where he can play and explore. He loves the outdoors, especially in the snow—tunneling through piles, bouncing around in pure joy, and digging for hidden treasures like sticks and balls. He plays well on his own or with his people but can be a bit rough with dogs who aren’t used to his enthusiastic style. Because of his enthusiasm, he would do best without young kids or elderly adults. Ollie would do well as an only dog but would truly thrive with a canine buddy who matches his playful energy. He loves to climb into your lap despite his size, always eager to be as close as possible. While his excitement and strength can be a lot for older dogs or small pets, Ollie has a sweet, submissive side, especially when he doesn’t feel like going into his kennel. With his affectionate, loving nature and boundless happiness, Ollie is ready to find his forever family—one that will cherish his joyful spirit and give him all the love he deserves. Ollie is from a local shelter. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page. If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.

Adopt Ollie and Receive Ollie's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Ollie's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Ollie's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Ollie, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Ollie's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Ollie was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Ollie’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Ollie’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Ollie’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
