We love Olive and her penguin buddy



The Story

This is a very simple story of Olive the dog who after hearing the words of a song All of the other reindeer thought she heard Olive the other reindeer.

"Olive the Reindeer," said Olive. "I thought I was a dog. Hmmm, I must be a Reindeer!"

She stopped wrapping Christmas gifts and headed to the North Pole to help Santa. Olive arrived just in time and took her place in the line-up, with Comet using an extra piece of ribbon to tie her in safe and tight.

With the reindeer watching their strange new addition they crashed into a tall tree and while Olive was able to chew them loose, a small tear happened in Santa's bag.

They lost some gumdrops and some flutes too, but Olive was able to help retrieve them as Santa patched the sack and they off once again to deliver to all the good children.

Once the delivering was done, they started to head for home when a fog made it difficult to navigate. Santa remembered that dogs were super smellers and Olive would be able to smell Mrs. Claus's cookies baking. He asked Olive to guide his sleigh that morning.

Olive earned her antlers that day and went outside with the other reindeer to play reindeer games.

Tom & Jerry for realz



An undated handout photo shows a cat and a brown mouse within an inch of each other. Fear may be linked to the sense of smell, and can be switched off simply by shutting down certain receptors in the brain, Japanese scientists have found. In an experiment with mice, the researchers identified and removed certain receptors on the olfactory bulb of their brains -- and the result was a batch of fearless rodents.
