Smile Friday - The “If dogs could smile, these two would” edition
This is our dog Cole with his BFF Ollie. When we lived in Wrightsville Beach, Ollie lived next door. Every morning, Ollie would come over and see if Cole could come out and play (seriously, he came over and scratched at our door until Cole was released) and every night they’d spend hours and hours sharing the same stick, each one taking an end to chew.
They were an odd pair. I don’t think Ollie realized that he weighed about as much as Cole’s head, but they were friends to the end. Cole was conscious of Ollie’s size and didn’t play as hard with him as he did the big dogs. And Ollie was pretty much oblivious to the fact that Cole was a different size and breed. He just wanted a friend.
I think their friendships rings universal for all dogs. Dogs don’t judge each other based on how they look, what they wear, who they pray to, what kind of job they have, or who/how they love and they are perfectly happy little bundles of love. I wonder what the world would be like if people practiced the same philosophy.
