Labrador Rescue

Hi,
If you remember Julius was a Lab X Flat Coated Retriever and he became Olly and perhaps that's where it started. Julius being quite a dignified, majestic sort of name and Olly not. So welcome to my disaster dog, Olly has no concept of consequences so if he pushes his head into the hedge to investigate a pheasant even though he is slicing into his ear with a piece of wire he doesn't think to stop; does he look before he jumps over a wall to discover that it's about 15 feet lower on the other side? well no. He's had cut feet, eaten several socks and I'm sure there's more I've conveniently forgotten, but with all of that he's is the most loveable dog and after a slow start we have become a team. We've just come back from a few days in Kielder Forest with his chum next door, a Labrador X Paterdale, so good to be able to walk, miles and not see another person and then get back to the cottage and settle in front of the wood burner. I just wanted to let you know at the rescue centre that he's doing well. Sally

Great update on Olly, he sounds a handful must be the flat coat in him! Pleased you enjoyed your break at Kielder Forest not far from where I am it is a great place for walking and like you say you never see a soul!

What a great update, Sally, Olly sounds like he keeps you on your toes - I hope you've got him insured

Please keep the updates coming we love to hear about the rescue dogs' antics - the good bits and naughty ones as they make us smile. Keep safe Olly you sound as if you've wormed your way into Sally's heart quite successfully

I can see why you changed his name but certainly made me smile such a character never a dull moment

ahhh, not disaster dog.....curious, investigatory, impulsive.....well okay, a bit of a disaster
He sounds lovely!!
