#Blessed.
A precious 2-year-old Chihuahua named Oliver has been adopted after photos of him "praying" for love went viral.

John Hwang, who photographed Oliver, told BuzzFeed News that he heard about the dog after a friend described rescuing him from a busy highway.
His friend told him that the dog had been taken to California's Baldwin Park Animal Shelter, and Hwang, who is an occupational therapist and photographs rescue animals as a hobby, went to meet the pup on Jan. 11.
"I spent quite a bit of time with the dog," Hwang told BuzzFeed News about the visit. "That's usually what I do when I want to photograph a dog... to connect with the dog in some way."

Hwang said he sat on the floor — "to be eye level" — with Oliver for about an hour in order to gain his trust.
