He was born in Walhalla, South Carolina, on November 1, 2008. We traveled 70 miles yesterday to get him. He's only about 1.5 pounds, but he's very healthy for 7 weeks. Today we are going to the vet for a checkup at 3:15.
Ollie comes from a proud, distinguished line of Yorkshire Terriers. His father is Smart Little Bam Bam and his mother is Orphan Annie . . . ahh, country folk from the south . . .
His middle name, Middleton, comes from the street we lived on in Cincinnati. It is most certainly our favorite apartment on earth and the place we made so many dear memories. His first name is a combination of Brian's favorite chef, Jamie Oliver; Dickens's Oliver Twist; and a cute little Yorkie named Olive that used to frequent our favorite coffeehouse in Cincinnati. His nickname, Ollie . . . well, it's just cute . . . but it also reminds us of John StEIn's beloved cat who bore the same name and lived a wonderful life.
We will undoubtedly post several more pictures in the coming days!
