On Monday, Frane, who’s a 51-year-old rancher from Colorado, reflected on their new relationship in what looked to be a journal/diary entry that she shared on Instagram.
‘You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have! So you cling to God & to His word with all your might because it’s all you know to do. Then one day I looked up from the ashes and there you stood. Wow God!’ she wrote, seemingly referencing Dog.
In the caption, Frane shared a Bible quote from Isaiah 61:3, and three words she addressed directly to Chapman: ‘I love you!’

Sharing similar beliefs: The new couple have also been sharing their love of God in their social media posts
The new couple, who haven’t been shy in gushing over each on social media, also referenced their religious beliefs in a post from last Thursday that showed them out on a walk together.
‘Out enjoying today’s beautiful weather with Lola the bulldog ♥️ We walk by faith, not by sight. Living our lives in a manner consistent with our confident belief in God’s promises. 2 Corinthians 5:7,’ they both wrote in the caption.
Just days before Frane shared a photo of herself and Dog snuggled up to one another, while pronouncing, ‘So excited for this new chapter!’ in the caption.
Dog followed suit and reposted the image.
The new couple have been dating ‘for a few months,’ according to The Sun.
‘It’s going really good. It’s a God relationship because it’s just like a miracle,’ he said.
It’s a miracle how we met and it’s a miracle how great we’re getting along.’
Their bond has been building, in part, because they’ve been able to help each other cope with the grief of losing their respective spouses.
Beth Chapman died of complications from cancer in late June 2019 at the age of 51. Frane’s husband passed several months earlier.
When asked if he thinks marriage could be on the horizon, Dog replied, ‘There will never be another Mrs. Dog but it looks like there will be a final Mrs. Chapman.’
