Olivia is feeling overwhelmed at the shelter, where all the sights and sounds can be so much for her sensitive heart. She is a gentle, loving girl who longs for the comfort and safety of a forever home.

Once she knows she is truly safe, Olivia is sure to blossom, showing the warmth and affection she has been holding inside.

At just one year old, she is ready for a family who will give her the love and patience she deserves — someone to help her feel at home, at last.

Olivia is available for adoption through the Burlington Humane Society. Local-news.ca has partnered with the Burlington Humane Society to bring you stories of some of the pets they have available for adoption.
