Ollie 1/4/2003 - 9/7/2016

Yesterday we had to say goodbye to ancient Ollie - 13 years old and a miraculous tribute to the greyhound spirit after surviving terrible neglect and cruelty to enjoy four years in clover with us. We miss him terribly, but we also celebrate his sweet spririt. Run free dear Ollie....

Here's our tribute to a most special soul:

So sorry to hear your very sad news Sue, what a strong fight for life after all he had to suffer before he was lucky enough to become one of your family. Read your tribute to dear Ollie, made me cry. Rest in peace lovely boy. Fred.

He had a wonderful life with both of you and couldn't have wished for a better home in which to spend his final years. So sorry I'm having to reply to you on this thread once more though.X

I know - we've lost six in six years - and I was thinking we'd only have three in our lifetime :-(

Let's hope that we can keep the next one, or two, going a bit longer! We're not rushing into a decision but we've always pledged to have another.

At least their short Surrey lives have been full of luxury and adventures....

Sue & Richard

We were so sorry to hear about Ollie.

He was indeed a grand old gentleman and it's a testament to your good care that despite the terrible time he had before, he lived to a really good age. He couldn't have wished for a better home in which to enjoy his last few years. I'm sure he will still be with you in houndie spirit on the many waterways to come.

Run free at Rainbow Bridge with Lou, Lynx, Ty and Poppy, lovely boy.
