Kirk,
Opie had a dog named Gulliver and a bird named Dickey in the first episode,
The New Housekeeper. You see the bird in that episode but the only
mention of Gulliver is when Opie is saying his prayers.
H. makes ya wonder where those two pets went and ran off to.

I was just thinking the other day why didn't Opie ever have a pet on the
show? We know he loves dogs on the episode of Dogs, dogs, dogs and he had
taken care of winkin,(or was it lincoln) blinkin', and nod, as well as, his
imaginary horse Blackey. I wonder what kind of humorous additive that would
have made to the show. Maybe it would have just been a big additional cost
when it comes to training, feeding and caring for the pet. Just a curious
thought because Goober had a dog on one episode and we all remember Blue
and
Sigh Hutchin's Jimmy. Any thoughts?
