Sunday "Selebration" - Ollie's 4th Birthday!

 

Ollie: Can you believe that it's already my 4th birthday? I can't! It seems like yesterday when #1 and Tommy's breeder came to collect me from my breeder. That's the nice Ms. A holding me in the photo:

As soon as I got home, I knew who my #1 was!

And here I am the next day, with Mr. G and Ms. N!

I went to see Dr. C for my first check-up the day after I arrived. She said I was a lovely boy!

I was pretty cute!

I as lucky that Fernant agreed to be my buddy right from the start:

He was my mentor: and I looked up to him in all things

And I got to meet Noelle for the first time!

I even met Tommy's sister, Sophie!

That summer, I went to the beach for the first time:

And I met Heloise, who lived in the field next to us at the time:

I grew into a very handsome boy!

Noelle was my bestest friend!

And Fernant too, of course!

In the spring of 2021, Noelle and I had a daughter, Lily!

Lily grew into a lovely girl:

And I am lucky to have my wonderful pussycats:

At the end of last year, I had to have major surgery to repair a torn cruciate ligament in my hind left leg. I was on very restricted activity for a couple of months, and made a great recovery!

Sadly, we lost the one and only Fernant in the summer of 2021, and my lovely Noelle ran off to the bridge in September. #1 says that I have really matured over the past year, and have become her protector. I am proud to be a good Dad to Lily and little Leonie, and a trusty companion to my #1.

#1 here. Ollie had some pretty huge paws to fill when he arrived and it took some time for him to grow into the wonderful dog he is now. Everyone who meets him loves him and he is really lucky to have a second #1 (#2!) in Mr. G when I go away, We all love you, Ollie-Poo and wish for you many walks, friends, treats, and cuddles for many years to come!
