Mango's Tail-Wagging Transformation with Ollie

Hello furrends! I'm Mango, a friendly and fluffy Cavapoochon puppy living in Manhattan. My pawrents adopted me from a rescue organization when I was super tiny at just 11 weeks old. I was deemed “undesirable” since I was born with an umbilical hernia, but my pawrents clearly didn’t agree!

I absolutely love living in NYC. I’m a very happy guy. My tail is always going wild, whether it's for my fellow furry friends or hoomans of all ages passing by. If anyone makes eye contact with me, it’s game over. I HAVE to say hi to them! Making friends is definitely my favorite hobby, and my social calendar full of doggy playdates and birthday celebrations can prove it. I also go on pack walks during lunch with some of my buddies.

Learning is another one of my hobbies, because that usually means I get some sort of treat! One of my favorite tricks is giving kisses on cue. My mom loves receiving my affection, and I’ve learned that sometimes, I should just give her kisses without her asking me first. With my dad, we have a hilarious exchange that he calls "the belly tax." Whenever he passes me, I roll over with my paws up and demand that he gives me belly rubs. I think it’s a fair trade.

On February 11, I celebrated a big milestone – I turned one! My pawrents threw me a pawty filled with treats, toys, and, of course, all my pals. I couldn’t believe so many friends showed up to celebrate with me.

I’m not going to lie, my hoomans definitely spoil me. But it’s only because they say I deserve it. I could give you 100 reasons why they think that. I could also give you 100 reasons why I’m switching my food to Ollie. But, I’m really tired from a long walk, so I am just going to give you five.

Reason 1: Vet's Advice

My vet told us that I would have to switch my food when I turned one. No more puppy kibble for me–I’m a big boy now! Of course, I had to take her advice, since she always makes sure I’m feeling good and helps me when I’m not.

Naturally, my pawrents were on a mission to find the pawfect new food for me. They did tons of research, asked my doctor for advice, and even read reviews online. There was no question that Ollie was exactly what I needed.

Reason 2: Tummy Trauma

Not to be TMI, but I’ve certainly had my fair share of tummy issues. I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve been to the vet and had to get prescription food or medicine. And to be honest, that prescription food they give me is definitely not up to my standards.

Here’s where Ollie saved the day. The all-natural formula is exactly what I needed. Ever since I made the switch, I haven’t been to the vet once! Now that I’m eating Ollie, I feel energized again, knowing that my body is getting the nutrients it needs and no unnecessary junk (besides what I try to eat off the street, of course).

Reason 3: My Taste Buds are Alive Again

In my younger puppy days, I ate anything and everything my pawrents gave me. In fact, I devoured it. However, more recently, I decided I wanted to be picky, because I know there are better options out there. My hoomans were concerned, since I used to be so food-motivated.

Naturally, they wanted to find something that was not only good for my health, but also something that would be enjoyable for me. Ollie was definitely the right move! To jazz up my meals for special occasions, my hoomans will add a dollop of plain yogurt or some fresh fruits and veggies for an extra kick. I’m excited to announce that I have officially rejoined the Clean Plate Club!

Reason 4: My Ollie Meal Plan

So, what is it that I love so much about Ollie? For starters, it’s not your typical kibble routine. I get a mix of fresh food AND gently-baked food. Change can be overwhelming for puppies, but I transitioned seamlessly into my new meal plan. I happily selected three mouth-watering flavors: Chicken and Carrots, Beef and Sweet Potato, and Turkey and Blueberries. Drooling yet? It smells amazing, and tastes like I had my very own Michelin-star chef whip up the meal just for me. Plus, it’s WAY easier on my delicate tummy.

Reason 5: The Convenience of the Ollie App

My mom loves to be efficient and save time, and Ollie’s user-friendly app helps her do just that. It’s easy to manage my membership, look at upcoming orders and make changes to the meals that she selected. Her favorite part was doing the free digestion scan, which tailored the exact meal plan that would be just right for me. My dad on the other hand…he can barely figure out his own meals. But his fetch-playing abilities are top notch!

I’d like to take the time to say thank you to my hoomans for discovering Ollie and for treating me like the little prince that I am. Just when I thought they couldn’t get any better, they managed to level up. From the vet’s recommendations to the mouth-watering meals I’m now eating on the regular, Ollie has been really instrumental as I emBARK on my journey as a young adult.
