Odis is a deep thinker with a sense of irony. The other dogs think he’s a bit of a sad sack — that he’d be happier if he behaved more like a normal dog. Odis doesn’t think that peeing on the same tree day after day makes him normal. In fact, consider how the tree feels, he’d say to them. Odis wants everyone to know that he is not Asian, he is not a cousin of Blue Dog and those aren’t spikes on his collar. Odis is simply Odis. A quirky, observer with a keen interest in children. A protector of gold fish and small, defenseless creatures. He’s his own dog — a blue lump of love.
