Last year, 3,380 dogs and cats were euthanized in Chicago.
During his animal communication session, Tater shared something quietly heartbreaking:
“Sometimes I worry people won’t like me. I worry if I’m good enough.”
His foster mom couldn’t hold back tears — because he is good enough. Every dog waiting for a home is.
October is Adopt a Shelter Dog Month, and Chicago’s shelters are beyond capacity.
The See Hear Love Project™ unites animal communication and fine-art photography to give foster animals a voice — so they can finally be seen, heard, and adopted.
🐾 Featuring Tater from @darkhorsedogs

Every foster animal has something to say.
Maggie’s animal communication session inspired the beginning of The See Hear Love Project™—and many more voices will follow.

Dama may be in a wheelchair, but her spirit is unstoppable.
Through The See Hear Love Project™, her voice and her story are shared—so she can be truly seen, heard, and adopted.
Thank you @sayvanimals for giving her the chance she deserves. Thank you @salvageone for welcoming us to photograph Dama in your beautiful space. She was a little nervous Nelly that day, so we finished her session in the studio. We’re so grateful for your support in helping animals like Dama be seen, heard, and adopted. ❤️🐾

This is Nala the cat. 🐾
Her reading wasn’t about adoption — it was about understanding.
Animal communication reveals what our pets are truly feeling.
Would you want to know what your cat is thinking?
Something extraordinary is beginning.
⠀
The See Hear Love Project™ gives foster animals more than a portrait—it gives them a voice. Through animal communication and photography, their stories will finally be shared with the world.

Follow along as we change lives, one portrait at a time.

Meet Trixie — the very first foster animal to launch The See Hear Love Project™.
Rescued from Chicago Animal Care & Control and safe today thanks to @darkhorsedogs, Trixie opened her heart during her animal communication session and shared her wish: a forever family to love her gentle spirit.
Her story begins The See Hear Love Project — a movement that combines fine-art portraiture with animal communication to help foster animals be truly seen, heard, and adopted.
This October, in honor of National Adopt a Shelter Dog Month, Trixie’s story highlights the countless foster animals still waiting to be adopted.
Follow along as more animals share their voices — and please share Trixie’s story to help her find her forever home.

🐾 After Maggie’s first animal communication session, her words surprised us all.
But what she shared next was just as powerful…
This famous Chicago dog (@maggieandherdads )reminded us why animals deserve to be seen, heard, and loved.
Her voice helped inspire The See Hear Love Project™ — a campaign giving foster animals a chance to tell their own stories through communication and fine-art portraiture.
Follow along to hear the voices of animals still waiting for a home.

🐾 What happens when a famous dog finally speaks?
When Chicago’s beloved Maggie (@maggieandherdads) had her first animal communication session, she surprised us all with a message about her family:
“They’re my boys too. They don’t belong to everyone.”
She was talking about her dads — claiming them as her own.
That moment became the spark for The See Hear Love Project™ — the first campaign to combine animal communication with fine-art portraiture to help foster animals be truly seen, heard, and loved.
Follow along to hear the voices of animals waiting for a home.
