My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Little Olive is such a goof! She loves to adventure around outside and play with her brothers. She is such a great girl! She does like to put her brothers, Pickle and Caper, in their place, but then snuggle with them for bed time. Olive gets very attached to her person and enjoys lap time more than anything. She likes to run and is curious. In the foster house she is quite comfortable, and she enjoys playing games and getting as many cuddles as she can. She plays with all of the other dogs in the house and really is not concerned about the cats at all. She is going to be an intelligent one! She is about three months old and weighs about 19 pounds. Olive can be a bit shy at first, but will be your trustworthy partner for life once she knows she has you there. Olive is going to be the perfect mountain dog, always ready for a hike or a joyride and always by your side!

More about this rescue

We are a dog rescue focused on the Pine Ridge and Rosebud Indian Reservations and the nearby border towns. At LightShine Canine we bring the heart of the Lakota and the needs of the dogs together. Our goal is to rescue stray, abandoned, injured or abused dogs on the Pine Ridge Reservation with the help of Lakota youth and adults working on sobriety...and to find these dogs forever homes. Our adoption fees help us continue to do this and to provide community outreach to Tribal members in the form of dog food, vaccines and spay/neuter. Our dog rescue work program is geared to ensure that the dogs we rescue and the Lakota who assist us with this dream are changed forever.
