Meet Olive, a beautiful 5 year old, 64lb black lab mix! Olive is a sweet, loyal girl who wears her heart on her sleeve for her humans — she’s a total shadow, happiest when she’s right by your side following you from room to room. She’s also a total dog-lover and would do best in a home with another dog around her size to romp and play with. She can play a little rough, so a home with a small dog or a cat is only recommended for an adopter experienced with dog training and behavior — someone who can manage introductions and reinforce good manners along the way.Olive is generally low energy and content to relax, but she does love having a yard to zoom around in every once in a while with her doggie pals — a fun burst of energy before she’s back to lounging. She’s house trained, crate trained, and picked up on using the doggie door quickly. She’s also a dream at night — she sleeps straight through without needing a potty break. She loves a good game of fetch, is food motivated (which makes training a breeze), and is equally happy curled up in your bed or snoozing in her own dog bed.She’s currently working on her leash manners and is slowly learning to live peacefully with a cat in her foster home — she’s curious about her feline housemate, and progress is being made, but this is still a work in progress best suited to a confident, experienced handler.If a loyal, low energy with a little spunk companion is what you’re looking for — and you know how to guide a dog with just a few minor quirks — Olive might be your perfect match!Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-serve basis. We strive to find the perfect home for each animal. Applications may take up to 48 hours to process. All CAWS animals are fixed, microchipped, and vaccinated. Her adoption fee is $200.
