One spoiled little pocket…
Our dog is an almost 4 year old maltese named Oliver Pocket…yes he has a middle name thanks to John Mulligan. When I first brought Oliver home from the puppy patch at 7 weeks old he was a teeny tiny little guy weighing in at just 2 pounds. I used to stuff him in my coat and he would poke his little head out and that’s how we would travel since it was a really cold January in D.C. that year. Well when I brought him over to meet my friends Jenn & John, John commented on how he could fit in my pocket and the name stuck. This has prompted some truly brilliant song lyrics from Gary…
“Oliver Pocket, that fuzzy little pocket. Any old pocket won’t do…”
Anyway, I just picked the fuzzy little pocket up from his groomer,Tailwashers and the boy looks very clean and handsome after a nice bath, haircut, manicure & blueberry facial. However, he tends to fall into a depression after grooming so here he is all snuggled up in the slanket with his favorite drinking glass.
For some reason in the past week, Oliver has given up on drinking from his dog bowl and now will only drink from a glass. Let me elaborate even further, he will only drink bottled water poured into a glass. No, it gets worse, he will only drink cold, bottled water in a glass. How did I raise such a spoiled pup? He’s lucky that he’s so darn cute!
OMG!! I thought my maltese was spoiled because he’ll only drink from his bowl filled with bottled water and ice cubes…but a glass?! That’s awesome!
When I die I want to come back as Oliver Pocket!
Such an adorable spoiled with love puppy.
How cute is Mr. Pocket??? I love this shot of him….looks so relaxed drinking a nice cold beverage!
Send Oliver to hang out with our pups for a week and he’ll be drinking toilet water before you know it! Gross I know!
i just love the name! Mr. Pocket… genius. =) and the song made me laugh! oh, how we spoil our dogs.
