Olly

Meet Olly, a sweet and loving older gentleman who has come to Many Tears as part of an emergency rescue. Olly, along with 11 other dogs, was once owned by a lady who loved them dearly but was facing extremely difficult circumstances. The dogs were living in a small caravan with no electric or running water, and the conditions were freezing and frightening for them. Despite the challenges, the lady tried her best to care for them but ultimately made the heartbreaking decision to allow them to find new homes where they could enjoy the comfort, love, and stability they truly deserved.
Olly is one of the most loving dogs you'll ever meet. He’s a kind soul who thrives on affection and attention. While he may be an older gentleman, he still has a playful spirit and a heart full of love to give. Olly has some medical needs that potential adopters should be aware of. He is doubly incontinent, meaning he leaks both urine and faeces, and he has some weakness in his back legs due to a previous fall from a 6ft wall. His back legs are weak, and he walks with an abnormal gait, but the good news is that he isn’t in pain and gets around just fine in his own special way. Although Olly hasn’t had much exercise, he would benefit from gentle introductions to exercise, and possibly some physiotherapy, although this may not change the way he walks.
Despite these challenges, Olly is full of love and just wants to be with his humans. He adores cuddling and will crawl right onto your lap for a snuggle whenever he can. He is very attached to people and doesn’t like being left alone. Olly thrives in the company of others, so he would do best in a home where someone is around most of the time to give him the love and care he craves.
Olly has made incredible progress since arriving at Many Tears. He now has a wheelchair that helps him get around outside, and he is learning to use it with great enthusiasm! He is also very capable of getting around inside the house, either pulling himself along on his front legs or taking a few steps on all four legs. His incontinence is well-managed with pads and nappies, and he’s very compliant with nappy changes, which makes life much easier for everyone.
Olly is a joyful, affectionate little dog who absolutely loves food and is always eager to share some cuddles. He is fine with dogs of all sizes and even gets along well with cats. He sleeps soundly at night and enjoys a ride in his buggy. Olly would be happiest as an only dog, as he’s deeply attached to his humans, but he mixes well with other dogs if the right circumstances allow.
If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who will fill your heart with joy, Olly is the one for you. His sweet, loving nature will make him an incredibly special member of any family. With plenty of love and TLC, Olly will shine in his forever home. He’s ready to bring joy and love to someone who will cherish him for the wonderful little dog that he is. Could that be you?
