New York, NY – This year’s winner is Olive, a dog who was granted a second chance at life after suffering terrible neglect while in the questionable care of her original owners. It’s an opportunity she has seized with both paws.
A mixed-breed chihuahua/terrier who lives in New York with her owner, Elizabeth Dachs, Olive took the award after making an amazing recovery against the odds.
Olive is now happy in her new home, where she communicates with her owner’s family through a form of sign language. She is getting “younger every day” as the wounds and trauma of her previous life heal, and her story is an inspiration to us all.
