Meet Ollie! Ollie is an adorable little Red Tick Coonhound/Beagle mix - just look at those ears and spots! Ollie is around 3 months old and weighs about 15 lbs. He will be on the bigger size of medium when he grows up. If you know the breed, you will know that they are even tempered, loyal, smart, and very very sweet. In the time we have had him he's already learned to sit and his leash manners are improving. He loves to cuddle, play fetch,  and go for walks.  Ollie will need lots of room to run and can jump a 3 foot gate, so a fenced in yard is required. He has not tested boundaries outside but has cleared a gate in our home.

If you want the perfect family dog, Ollie is your guy! He loves to lay around and watch my kids play, and takes treats nicely, but like any puppy, supervision is key because he is still learning the difference between people toys and dog toys. No cats, please, as the desire to chase is just too strong. Ollie also loves playing with other dogs and indeed would be a wonderful addition to a family looking for a second or third dog. 

Ollie's adoption fee of $300 will include all age appropriate vaccinations, neuter, and microchip. If you are interested in meeting this sweet guy and making him a part of you forever family, please go to our site at www.starfishanimalrescue.com, download the pre-adoption application, and email it over to us right away so we can set up a meet and greet for you. Ollie is in a foster home in Joliet, IL.
