Description
Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Newfoundland Dog / Mixed. At 12 years young, Olaf is a big-hearted Lab/Newfoundland mix with an even bigger love for people! After spending 9 years with his previous family, Olaf is ready to spend his golden years surrounded by love, comfort, and plenty of pets. He's house-trained and crate-trained, making for an excellent roommate. This cuddle buddy is happy to remind you with a small (but surprisingly high-pitched) bark to remind you that petting him is, in fact, your full-time job. He cannot live in a home with shared walls (no apartments/townhomes) due to his noise level. Olaf has done well meeting other dogs and currently lives with multiple cats, mostly ignoring them. He also loves human kids too. He has been great at adjusting to the new routine, especially with so many new creatures at his foster home. At 80 lbs, Olaf is on a weight management plan and takes glucosamine to support his joints. He also has possible arthritis care down the road and a fatty mass that isn’t currently causing issues. Regular grooming will be important to keep him feeling his best too. Olaf has low- to medium-energy, but his future family should prioritize exercise in order to lose weight. He will not need a fenced yard for exercise but his recall isn't the best. Olaf is looking for a loving, patient home where someone is around often to keep him company and continue helping him settle in. He’d do great with someone who appreciates a slower pace, enjoys companionship, and doesn’t mind a little extra “conversation.” If you’ve got room on your couch and in your heart, Grandpa Olaf is waiting for you! If you are interested in Grandpa Olaf, fill out an application at this link to get the ball rolling - pethavenmn/adopt/adoptable-dogs/dog-adoption-application/ The adoption fee is $250. Adoption fee includes spay/neuter, heartworm/Lyme test, all age-appropriate vaccinations (distemper, rabies, and Bordetella), heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, and microchip implant (including registration). Adoption fees INCLUDE a mandatory sales tax of 7.525%. Age and breed are based on veterinarian and intake professional’s recommendation and not guaranteed as a rescue animal’s history is often unknown. Due to post-adoption services provided, we prefer to adopt within a 150-mile radius of the Twin Cities. However, we will consider up to 250 miles if the foster agrees to travel requirements and staff approval.
