      Sooo beautifully done...in all respects... Photos, writing narration, revelations, (yes Andrew Cotter IS quite handsome) counsel on adopting a dog & homage to your dear, dear friend. A kind & heartfelt thank you for reminding me about the joyful & hilarious moments Olive, Mable & Andrew gifted to the world during the worst global crisis in our lifetime.

    During that awful time, there were a few things that got me through it, Andrew, Olive and Mabel’s videos was one of them. I could listen to Andrew reading the phone book. His audio book, Dog Days, is great as he reads it himself, highly recommended. Marco is adorable

    Thank you for this video.... The reference to Andrew Cotter and Olive and Mabel is what got me to click on this video. But there ended up being more to it than these three wonderful amigos... with the moving dedication to fast friend Mark, and the touching introduction to the gorgeous Marco doggo... Lovely video. Thanks again!

    I was drawn to this because of the title. Got a lot more than I expected. I’ve had two yellow Labradors, they were litter brothers, for 13 years. They crossed the rainbow bridge in 2017 & 2018. Their passing still hurts, but watching Andrew and his gorgeous girls brings back so many wonderful memories of my boys. I hope you have many years of absolute joy with your beautiful boy Marco, Fred. ❤❤❤❤

    Your Marco is one gorgeous dog. Definitely, heaven sent. I am happy you have him with you and your family now.
    Thank you for sharing this, and God bless. Give Marco a hug for me.

      @annehallok - “Olive and Mabel: the dogs that broke the internet” was my first introduction to a lifelong
      addiction.
      The three of them (plus That Voice) got most of us through Lockdowns 1 and 2.
      Mr Cotter got millions of responses from all over the world, from Australia to Zaire when he posted the first clip.
      He’ll always be appreciated for being such a sanity saver 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

    While I agree with sentiment, the gut wrenching pain and loss of my dog dying was too much. I never want to go through that again. Jessie Girl was a good girl, even after two years I still hurt inside when I think of her passing. I just never want to go through that again. I hope your Marco lives a long, long time. Cheers

    • @valerieellen2402
      @valerieellen2402 Před 4 měsíci +10

      Over many decades I have lost a number of pets and understand the grief of losing much loved companions who became family, but there are always so many other, often desperate, homeless and unloved little furry friends out there needing the sort of love, care and attention you gave Jessie Girl and who will always be grateful you rescued them if you give them a chance. Please think again. I remember all my little friends with some sadness at times even now, but I know they had better, longer, happier and more secure lives than they would have had otherwise because all but one were rescues and strays, and each one helped me with the pain of the loss of the previous one. Please visit a rescue centre and let another little one into your heart. You won't regret it. ❤️

      I grieved for two years after losing my girl. Raw, physical pain that hurt so much I couldn't breathe. It was 5 years before I felt ready to welcome another dog into my life and I found a retired rescue greyhound who truth told, rescued me. I feel your pain, and the love you have for your dog will always remain and hopefully that will allow you in time to move on.
      Be kind to yourself ❤
