Introduction to Oli

Oli, the new addition who arrived on January 13th, 2015. He is a 9 week old puppy who made his journey from his foster home in Indiana to me in upstate Wisconsin! I first saw his litter on Chazhound Dog Forum, posted by one of the members. I thought they were just the cutest puppies! She did an update and I looked at them again, and had to ask if it would be possible to get one of the puppies to Wisconsin....and....well.....it was!


Oli's mother was found as a pregnant stray, so we don't know what his dad his. His mother is a Pit Bull Terrier (mix?). The litter is quite stubby and with some length, so possible has some Dachshund or Corgi in there somwhere. This picture below is Oli, his sister named Cali, and their mother named Lyra.


Now, Oli made his way here by two awesome people from the forum! AmberH, who also is his families foster home bringing him a little past Chicago and meeting with Moth, who then brought him home and kept him overnight until she traveled from Madison upstate to me! These two were amazing for getting him to me, as it was many hours of driving!


Oli has been incredibly sweet and him and Chomper are getting along amazing! Lots of playing has gone on between them! Chomper is so happy to have a tug buddy! So far, Oli has just slept in bed with Chomper and I. He slept through the night with us last night. I did try the crate here and there throughout the day, and he will throw a bit of a fit not being able to follow me, so going to continue doing some work with that, as he'll need to at least be in the crate while we're out of the house. He also came to me being very good about pottying outside! As soon as your bring him outside, he will potty...though pooping takes a little time, haha. Plus doesn't help it is freeeeezing out!

But all in all, so far it's been a good time with the new addition. Now let us hope he doesn't start getting TOO naughty as he settles! ^-^
