Olivia von Janni is the cutest 10 week old German Shepherd mix puppy with the most expressive ears! This brown and black little nugget is an affectionate medium energy pup who just adores her two-and-four legged family. Initially shy, this sweet pup comes to life in the comfort of a loving foster home. She can’t contain her excitement when it’s playtime with her fur siblings, doing somersaults and happily bouncing around the yard with her ‘pack’.  Playing fetch with a tennis ball is one of her favorites; she obediently brings the ball back for another round of fun.  Olivia cautiously observes whether the grumpy old fur brother is in the mood to play, knowing when to ‘back off’ and turn her attention elsewhere.  After an initial burst of energy, like any puppy Olivia winds down for a good nap on mommy’s lap or in her crate.  Typical of a very young puppy, she loves sharpening her teeth on nearby objects (so you’d better hide those “Jimmy Chews”) but can be easily directed to toys or bones; she may not be suitable for very small children until she’s past the ‘puppy mouthy’ stage.  Lucky little Olivia is being well socialized in a loving foster home to get her ready for her forever home, including using the doggie door to let herself out when it’s time to do her business.  She will be on the smaller side like her mommy, Janni (also available from Westside), proving that good things come in small packages!
