Don't fear the reaper

"Love of two is one,
Here but now they're gone,
Came the last night of sadness,
And it was clear he couldn't go on,
Then the door was open and the wind appeared,
The candles blew and then disappeared,
The curtains flew and then he appeared,
Saying don't be afraid.

Come on Ollie... And he had no fear,
And he ran to him... Then they started to fly,
They looked backward and said goodbye,
He had become like they are,
He had taken his hand,
He had become like they are.

Come on Ollie...don't fear the reaper."


Diesel and Oliver have been best friends since the moment they met.

They have both had issues with other dogs but never with eachother.

All they ever did together was run and play.

Diesel has a lot of friends but Ollie was his best friend.

They both lived next to the park and would have been best friends for the rest of their lives.

Yesterday they played in the park for the last time.

Oliver died last night.

He had a heart attack.

He was two years old.

These are the unedited pictures from their last walk.

On a cold Friday Diesel met Sally in the park.

Sally was with Lilly as usual.

Then they were joined by Diesel's best friend Oliver.

Diesel and Oliver played like they always had.

Oliver was much easier to see in the dark than Diesel.

Mysterious lights appeared in the park.

It was Fudge with his illuminated collar.

The boys got down to business.

Sally joined in too.

When the boys play,Sally likes to referee.

Lilly disappeared for a while.

Fudge doesn't often stand still.

He is like a grey torpedo coming out of the darkness.

Except when Anthony takes a picture of course.

Oliver doesn't look too good in this picture.

Ollie went back to doing what he and Diesel liked best.

They might not look very energetic but it was only possible to take pictures of the boys when they stopped for a few seconds.

Diesel and Oliver have a break for treats.

Fudge,stands still again,briefly.

Oliver always looked like a very fit and healthy boy.

He always gave Diesel a run for his money.

Oliver didn't like other dogs when he was on the lead.

But he was very good with Diesel.

This is the last we will ever see of Ollie.

Diesel and Anthony will miss him a lot.
