Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Ollie...
This sweet little 9 lb, 1 year old Chihuahua ( maybe part min pin?) mix started following us on walks with our dogs. A week later, a fellow dog lover caught him and brought him to our home. He was found to be in good health and has since then been neutered, vaccinated and kept on heartworm prevention.
Ollie is cautious around most humans and likes to keep his distance, but lets his guard down when other dogs are nearby. He likes being gently pet and will even jump up in excitement, quickly licking your hand to get attention, but only after you have earned his affection. He is rarely aggressive or loud. This sweet, calm boy and has even been known to get along with young children. He told us to mention that he doesn’t want to be an “only dog”, he loves snuggling and playing with his four-legged friends.
Ollie is curious and loves being outside, but his cunning and quick and will escape if you fail to keep a close eye on him! He must be in in secure environment and walked on leash (ideally a harness). Once he is done exploring, he’ll happily follow you back home to a comfy kennel where he is most content and happy.
If your ideal dog is a calm, quiet, low-maintenance playmate for your pups who you may occasionally need to sprint after, then you might just be the perfect fur-ever home for Ollie. If you want to meet this lil guy, contact his foster mom (chellie.martinez@gmail.com) or fill an application with Forgotten Dogs of the 5th Ward www.forgottendogs.org
