OCTOBER

Olive’s Dream

National Black Dog Day & The Beauty of Second Chances

In a crowded high-kill shelter, Olive waited — quiet, unseen, overlooked. A black dog in a place where few ever got a second chance. Her spirit was there all along, hidden behind the noise and the shadows.

Then TLC opened the door to her new beginning. In a loving foster home, Olive finally had the space to breathe, to trust, to play — to shine. Her goofy grin and gentle heart began to bloom, proving what was true all along: she was never broken, only waiting to be seen.

This October, we celebrate Olive and every black dog whose beauty is too often missed. Because fostering means more than saving lives — it means helping every dog’s true personality blossom into everything they were meant to be.

✨ Every dog deserves their moment to shine. ✨
