About This Dog for Adoption

Olly's ideal home

Say hello to Olly! Olly is a fantastic dog with so much love for people and a big zest for life. He is energetic, sweet natured and very loving. With some dedicated and patient owners, Olly will make an amazing companion to his special someone. Olly would like to live in an adult only home and he will need to live in a quiet, rural location with adopters who are able to be at home most of the day at the start until leaving time can be built up. As Olly is focusing hard on his "settling" he would be best suited as the only dog in the home. Sometimes he does enjoy saying hello to other calm, friendly dogs when out and about but quieter walking areas are much less stressful for him. Olly has some behaviour quirks that he will need to work on with his adopters and the Centre Training Team, so his new family will need to be ready and dedicated to this process! He will need a secure outdoor space to enjoy some playtime and mental stimulation when at home. He loves to sniff and explore, so a garden and daily walks will be amazing for Olly!

Could you be Olly's perfect match?

This handsome boy is a friendly one year old Collie Crossbreed who is looking for a home that will spend plenty of time working at his pace. As you can imagine, Olly is a very smart young man therefore adopters that have a keen interest in training and enrichment activities, such as scent work would be his ideal home. Olly has made so much progress here at the rehoming center with our fabulous training team and canine carers, he has come so far learning lots of new things, we are so proud of him. We have seen that small positive sessions boost his confidence hugely. Olly is a firm favorite here at the rehoming center with all the staff, this is because of his happy personality and that super cute face that makes us all smile, we have no doubt he will do the same for his new family. If you think you could offer Olly his forever home, please follow the steps below and don't forget to favourite him in your application.
