If you're looking for the sweetest puppy ever, you've found her! This is Olivia!
Olivia looks to be a Lab mix about 4 months old. She's oh-so-sweet and oh-so-friendly! Olivia's good with all dogs, cats and kids of all ages. She's crate trained and has some basic training - she comes when you call her, knows to go wherever you point to when you tell her to, and she knows what "no" or "stop" means. Pretty good for a beginner! As with all puppies, Olivia will need further house training, learning to walk on a leash, and learning all the basic commands. She's got a good start on these things, but she will need a family who is committed to continuing her education and socialization so that she grows up to be a well-mannered canine citizen. Taking an obedience class together is strongly recommended as it not only helps promote bonding and getting to know each other better, but can be lots of fun! A fenced yard would be ideal so that Olivia can run, play fetch, practice her commands and explore safely. The Lab in Olivia loves to swim so trips to the lake or ocean will be in order for the summer! Olivia was found as a wee pup under a house, and had some hair loss due to malnutrition and raw sewerage where she was living. She was bottle-fed from 10 days old so she is VERY people oriented. All her hair has grown back in just fine. She's very affectionate and loves to be with her people! Olivia's a smart, gentle happy, happy girl and she's looking for a family to love her forever.

Some dogs may not yet be in New England, nor ready for immediate adoption. There may be additional vetting, quarantine, waiting periods and/or fees depending upon your state of residence. If you have questions or concerns on any of this, you can discuss this with your Adoption Counselor.
