Some posts from back in September indicate that the movie was originally scheduled to premiere in September 2019 but got delayed.
Well my link didn\u2019t work but you can copy it. But if you can\u2019t or dont want to here is the picture!!! @tortorra_ plays beautiful Nicole Cabella. Notice I didnt include sissy even though she in it? That is cause @peterdeluise liked me!! I liked him. He got on the ground and barked at me and did the pug snort. We are kindred spirits!!! He was a very good director. Btw daddy is the lead Set dresser on this show. Mommy worked a few days too. Premeires September 28 on the hallmark channel!!! #hallmarkmovies #happyfall #happyfallyall???? #happyfallyall #fallmovies #loveundertheolivetree #pug #puglife #fallmovies

They did a lot on set to give a nice fall feeling to the movie even though it was filmed in the hot summer months.
Fake fall is cute as hell. . #loveundertheolivetree
