Ovie German Shorthair Pointer
Why did people tame and domesticate dogs? Perhaps because of the unconditional love, devotion and universal acceptance that comes so naturally. Or, perhaps it's because dogs always let you know when the postman is at your door with an alarming bark. In Ovie's case, it's all of the above, plus he makes work feel like home. He reminds all of us to stop work once in a while and celebrate the moment, rather than wait for a special occasion. Ovie has recently been invited to model for an internationally recognized company.
