Story
Hi, I’m Olive. I’m an 11-year-old Boston Terrier girl with a black-and-white coat, one eye, and a whole lot of love to give. I may be small at 15 pounds, but I’ve spent my life being a loyal little companion to my people.
I’ve lived with kids, cats, and other dogs, and I especially adore my owner’s five-year-old son. I’m gentle, chill, and more of a quiet observer than the life of the party. I can be a little shy at first, but once I trust you, I’m the kind of dog who just wants to stay close and love you forever.
These days, life has gotten a little harder for me. I have itchy skin and food allergies that need some management, and I also have slight incontinence, which means I sometimes leak a little pee without meaning to. My family loves me deeply, but they’re moving to an apartment where accidents on the carpet just aren’t possible anymore. This decision is breaking their hearts.
I also lost one of my eyes a couple years ago after a bigger dog accidentally injured me while playing. It was surgically removed, but honestly? I’ve adapted just fine. I still get around well and enjoy being part of the family. I don’t let it stop me from being me.
I’m house trained, crate trained, and leash trained, though I do pull a little on walks because I still like to see the world. Right now I spend a lot of time in my crate and I’m often left alone for 8+ hours a day, so I’d really love a home where I can spend more time near someone kind and caring.
My perfect home would be calm, soft, and understanding — someone willing to help me through my senior years. I don’t need adventures or chaos. I just need comfort, patience, and someone who will love an older girl who still has so much love left to give.
My family says I’m the greatest and most loyal dog they’ve ever owned. I hope there’s someone out there willing to give me one more safe place to call home.
