5 years of smiling!

Ollie may be a wally but he has taught me a thing or two so that must make me 'wallier ' than him?! At the end of this month I will have had Ollie in my life for 5 years and he has taught me not to take life so seriously, to enjoy walking out in the rain, to walk every single day and to appreciate the small things.

He has a collection of battered old tennis balls and ancient bones and anyone would think he owned the crown jewels. He is just so completely, ridiculously happy 99% of the time. The only time he is not happy is when there is a storm and then he sakes in terror and cuddles up close.

Since Ollie bounced into my life I have laughed many times every single day. His joy is infectious.
I find life fun  now and even on challenging days Ollie manages to make it all OK.
I think I have been taught a life skill from a dog. he doesn't sweat the small stuff and does wild crazy things every day just for the hell of it and his care-free attitude is rubbing off on me!

He is a lovable rogue and I wouldn't have him any other way!
