Ollie may not be the biggest but he’s definitely this week’s best pet on campus.
Millie TaylorMeet Ollie, the black lab who hangs around in the Tin Can.
Name: Ollie
Age: 4 months and 4 days
Owner: Vinnie, Manchester House Services
Ollie loves the camera, he makes sure we catch his best eye
Favourite activities: Chewing furniture and destroying Vinnie’s house.
Worst habits: Picking on Bonnie and Clyde, Vinnie’s other dogs.
Manchester Uni Confession: Having a cheeky wee (or two) in the careers room. Vinnie tells The Tab, “Ollie’s not a great student.”
“I didn’t wee on the carpet, I swear.” Butter wouldn’t melt.
