Hi, my name is Olaf, and I like warm hugs.
I was rescued by some nice people from a really noisy shelter.
I had a few friends at the shelter, which was nice, and I am making new friends now from the comfort a foster home, which is even better.
I really like women, kids and other dogs my size.
I generally like everyone I meet! As I'm discovering all the new people to love and places to enjoy slow introductions help me feel safe and have a good experience.
My rescue family are helping me feel confident so I can shake over any new-life jitters and fully embrace my positive future.
They said they humans have to work through this stuff too, so it's all good.
They also say I have the cutest ears because they bounce when I walk..I can't see myself walking, but that sure does sound cute! Let me know what you think of my bouncy ears when we meet, ok?
I am an active guy, but I also know when it's time for belly rubs and snuggles.
I am as loving as I am playful, we can have so much fun together! I've been learning to wait at the door before walks, to be comfortable in my crate, and I already know basic stuff like sit, come, etc.
I am really smart, if I do say so myself I walk well on leash and my favorite is walking with another dog friend, like my husky pal at the shelter or my shepherd pal in my foster home.
I sometimes do think I am a lap dog, but I am not so tiny after all.
I will do my best to not crawl into your lap, but I do so love to get as close to my human as possible for a sweet snuggle sesh.
If you'd prefer, I will also happily lay my head head on your feet when you sit on the couch.
Life is best enjoyed with those you love, and I have so much love to give! So, I'm officially putting myself out there now, and I hope we can meet to see if we are a good match for each other, I am so eager to find my forever family where I can be safe and loved for the rest of my life.
Here's to hoping you will pick me! Olaf is 87#, 3years old, (soon to be) neutered, microchipped and vaccinated.
