Happy Gotcha Day, Ollie

[suethejam]

I am so excited - it is Ollie's third gotcha day :-)

When we took him in in 2012 following starvation and neglect, we didn't know how much time we'd have together, but here he is. He'll be 12 in April and, apart from a few aches and pains, he's in pretty good health.

Ollie is a peaceful hound, deepely bonded to us, which can make him seem a little aloof to "outsiders". He loves his home comforts and although he can't walk very far these days, he enjoys little bimbles round the park and meeting other greyhounds.

Here's hoping for another year - he's a very special boy :-)

It's some photos of how Ollie intendes to spend his day - he's off to a flying start - it's midday and he's just come downstairs!

Well done Sue and well done Ollie! He is a lucky boy to have found such a loving mum and dad. Long may he continue in good health. Fred and Lily

Happy gotcha day for yesterday, Ollie, you certainly landed on your paws 3 years ago. Here's to the next 3.

What a lovey lad you are (and now that you are a very distinguished gentleman of 12, it may make you feel comforted to know that you look a lot younger than Brennan, who is only 7!!)
