Violet is a loving, people-oriented pup who was adopted 2 years ago and has been an absolute cuddle bug ever since. She adores being close to her humans - her favorite things are going for walks and then curling up on your lap to relax.. She's also fine just going out in a fenced yard.

Unfortunately, Violet and the family's other dog aren't able to get along, so with a heavy heart the family is looking for a new home where Violet can truly thrive.

Violet would do best in:

A home where she is the only dog,

With someone who loves hugs & snuggles, and has gentle structure,

A person or family who enjoys spending time together.

She is so deserving of a calm, loving environment where she can be the center of someone's world and the recipient of lots of warmth and affection. I want to be sure we can get her there! While experienced owners are always welcome, Vi is very self-sufficient and easy.

She is 4.5 years old and 46 lb.
