Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Odie
Nickname: Odie-Odie-Odie
Breed: Maltese
Rescue: Albert’s Dog Lounge
Age: senior
Weight: 12 lbs
Fun fact: Since I had to have 8 of my rotten teeth removed recently, I would be a stunning subject for Tongue Out Tuesday on your Insta feed!
Did you know: I survived one of the worst puppy mills in Wisconsin
Foster home: Whitewater, WI
Home state: Wisconsin
Activity level: Moderate
Friendly with: Dogs. Cats are an unknown. He has never been around children, but MAY do ok with older, respectful kiddos.
Sleep style: During the day, Odie sleeps on dog beds either in the kitchen or an xpen (with free reign in/out). At night, he sleeps with foster mom.
Meals: Odie recently had the last of his 8 teeth removed, so he is now on a soft diet. He is currently eating Stella and Chewy's freeze dried patties with some Blue Buffalo canned food. He is fed in an xpen so that he can eat at his own pace without interference.
Snore-o-meter: 0
Bark-o-meter: 3 (if someone comes to the door, I’ll tell you about it!)
Shedding meter: 0
Fashion: Soft sweaters
Signature color: Dark colors. Jewel tones really pop against my fur.
Walk out song: Stand by me. Odie is insecure and needs a companion to be by his side and show him how to be a dog.
Favorite season: Fall....warm sunshine with cooler temps, opportunities for lots of smells and outdoor activities.
Personality: curious, timid, gentle, nervous, insecure, chatty when left alone, food motivated
Best feature: My soulful big brown eyes
Signature move: Nose up! Odie always has his nose in the air when foster mom is baking
Loves: Snuggling, learning to be a dog from my foster sister, car rides, being your shadow, taste testing homemade dog treats, hanging out in front of the fireplace, neighborhood walkies with my best doggie friend
Bucket list: A confident doggy sibling, a soft bed, a dish that has food when I’m hungry, boat rides on the lake, a home where my humans are home with me more often than not, and they will let me progress at my own pace.
Odie currently lives with two other dogs, a male and female. The female is his size and he clings to her. Although the male is larger, Odie will also follow him to go outside. Odie’s connection with his sister has caused nervousness when they are separated, which shows as him constantly barking when she is walked without him. Odie would thrive in a home that has a confident dog for him to bond with.
Odie will do his business outside but he also likes to run around and lift his leg…. Mill dog behavior for sure. He has not yet shown interest in toys, but that may change over time. He would prefer a fenced yard so he can explore his world, and a patient adopter who understands mill dogs and their special needs.
Neutered
Microchipped
I potty outside, but as a mill dog, I still mark inside. I’m working on it, but belly bands are a wonderful resource!
I love treats!
Walking on a leash is a work in progress, but I love exploring the world
Excellent car rider
As a mill dog, does not do well with a crate and is not fond of an x pen with the door closed
UTD on vaccinations
UTD on preventatives

- All cats in the home must be spayed or neutered and up to date on a rabies vaccination or wellness exam.

- You must agree that if you are no longer able to keep your rescue dog for whatever reason, the dog will be returned to Albert's Dog Lounge. The adopter must agree to never attempt to sell or rehome the dog at any point.
Our goal is to place our seniors into permanent, loving homes for the rest of their golden years.
