Ollie is a 11-year-old in san jose , CA, who needs $2,000 for Gastro-Intestinal Surgery.

Ollie stole my heart to moment he was born. Sweet, loving, and always one step behind me how could you not love this guy? He was one of 14 puppies from my other dog Xena’s litter. Him, along with his mom Xena are now together with us. A little cramped in an apartment but that’s fine with Ollie since he couldn’t live without someone’s constant attention.

Ollie is never far from your side. He’ll take pets all day but also just loves to be next to you, while also reminding you he’s there with a politely place paw on your leg or arm every once in a while. He’s loved by everyone he meets and always puts a smile on peoples face when we bring him to work or over to someone’s house.

Ollie lovesss to chew. Kongs, bones, balls and all the toys under the sun. A little shy at first but then is always ready to play if he sees you or a familiar dog again. He has a deep play bark which can seem scary to those who don’t know him but he is always in a play now position with his tail wagging as soon as he sees another dog.

Like I said.. Ollie loves to chew. But sometimes it’s not a toy. Maybe it’s a pillow, a cup, or in this case a necklace. A small gold necklace is stuck in Ollie’s stomach and causing a blockage so he cannot keep food down and is often crying to go outside for the bathroom. Still in high spirits, he’s unable to get the nutrients from his food because the blockage is stopping the food from absorbed

I have been in and out of work for a bit of time due to COVID and work sites being shut down. I also recently was injured at home. We make a modest living but not enough to cover these costs. Having Ollie back to himself will make our family come back to life again.
