Meet Oliver...

I miss Buster SO much. He was such a character! No other dog will ever replace him in my heart.

However, we couldn't stand the empty hole in our house. We went to a "high kill" shelter in our area and rescued a little long haired chihuahua who took to us right away. We named him Oliver (after Oliver Twist- since he's an orphan), but we call him "Ollie". This little guy is SO mellow. He has been through a lot and is pretty skiddish. He already follows me everywhere I go and he loves to cuddle. He's very sweet.

We rescued him, but I think he'll be rescuing us, too.

That little guy looks like he's getting the best rest of his life on his blue pillow. I'm so sorry that you lost your best pal, it's always so hard. They leave indelible marks in our hearts, and your newbie Oliver will as well.
