Oliver the Goodboy

Nearly three years ago we lost our little Coton named Keeva. She had kept us on our toes for 10 years. My husband and I, in our 70’s, were devastated and said no more! Losing her was just too painful but the house felt so empty.

One night while messing around on the computer I came across a little boy Coton. He looked so different from our all white Keeva! He was black and white and just adorable! I inquired about him and only 4 days later he was nestled on my chest as my husband drove us home. Talk about spur of the moment impulse buying!

I named the puppy Oliver GoodBoy. It truly was meant to be! A few weeks later my husband had a medical emergency and was flown to a hospital. I remember thinking… “how can I deal with a new little puppy and an ill husband?” But you know that little pup snuggled at night in bed with me, kept me busy enough so I wasn’t dwelling constantly on the “what ifs”, he made me laugh and gave me lots of kisses.

He is the friendliest little guy and we love him so much. He has truly lived up to his name!!! Oliver GoodBoy… you are the best!!!
