Oliver and Savannah once knew a life filled with comfort and care, spending their days in a home where their devoted mom showered them with attention. The two senior dogs were always side by side, convinced that nothing would ever separate them.
Everything changed when their beloved mom passed away, leaving the pair without the person who had been their entire world. At fifteen years old, the inseparable pups leaned even more on one another to cope with the loss, finding their strength in the bond they had built over a lifetime.
Frosted Faces Foundation, a senior dog rescue group located in Ramona, California, welcomed them when they lost their home. Although adjusting to a rescue environment felt strange, they were relieved they could remain together. Their biggest hope was to spend whatever time they had left enjoying life as a pair.
Finding Comfort In Foster Care
The staff quickly noticed how tightly connected these two were, constantly cuddling or curling up close as though they were afraid to be apart.
They were placed into foster homes where they were surrounded with the affection and nurturing they needed. Once they began to feel secure, both pups revealed personalities full of warmth that won over every person caring for them.
Oliver is known for his affectionate nature and lively spirit, acting far more youthful than his years might suggest. He loves car rides and even enjoys adventures like paddleboarding.
At the moment, he is staying in a short-term foster home through the Frosted Faces “Frosted Fling” program, while Savannah has returned to the foster family who previously cared for her. Both are doing well in their separate spaces.
Oliver easily befriends other dogs, people, and even cats, making him a naturally friendly companion.
Savannah’s foster mom speaks highly of her gentle spirit. Although she cannot see or hear, she has adapted with surprising ease, learning how to navigate both the home and the yard without hesitation.
She adores being close to her foster mom and has developed her own sweet way of asking for hugs, nudging her foster mom’s leg with her nose whenever she wants to be scooped up. At night, Savannah happily curls into bed beside her foster mom, content and relaxed.
Hoping For A Loving Home Together
A video posted by @peakepups on TikTok recently captured the pair in a tender moment, peacefully snoozing beside one another. The clip quickly touched countless hearts, showing just how deeply these seniors are connected.
The rescue’s greatest hope is that Oliver and Savannah will one day be adopted together, but they also understand that their ultimate goal is to find loving homes, even if it means they might end up apart.
To make adoption more accessible, the California rescue has removed the adoption fee for the bonded pair and committed to covering all veterinary care for the rest of their lives.
Oliver and Savannah deserve to spend their remaining years wrapped in love, safety, and comfort. With a bit of luck, someone will recognize their story and offer them the peaceful ending they truly deserve.
