Olive, first found a loving home through us in 2022. She was much loved, but when little ones joined the family, Olive found the changes difficult. Her family made the heartbreaking decision to let her find a home where she could feel comfortable and happy again.
Olive returned to our care and settled into foster, even sharing her adventures through her very own blog on our social media. And that’s where a new love story began…
A lovely lady in North Yorkshire got in touch after falling for Olive. There were just two hurdles: her home renovations wouldn’t be finished for another six to eight weeks, and Olive was here in Dorset!
But from the start, Olive’s needs were at the heart of everything she considered. She was happy to travel to Dorset as many times as it took to get to know her, and Olive’s wonderful foster carers agreed she could stay until her new home was ready. With Olive comfortable travelling too, everything began to fall into place.
Now, we’re delighted to share that Olive has made the long journey to beautiful North Yorkshire and is settling in well with her new family.
Sometimes, a forever home takes a little patience, a few extra miles and some very kind hearts along the way. Olive’s story reminds us why it’s always worth waiting for the right match.
A heartfelt thank you to her foster carers and her new family for making this happy ending possible.
