My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Velour, a lively and affectionate dog who's ready to find her forever home. Though she was initially very fearful, Velour is starting to come out of her shell, revealing a playful and loving personality. She's full of energy and loves to be where the action is. Her favorite activities include cuddling, munching on treats, or chewing on her favorite toys.

Velour is crate-trained and comfortable being crated for up to 5 hours, but she's still a bit nervous during car rides. She's a quick learner and already knows several cues, including sit, lay down, stand up, and go home (go to her crate).

Velour is reactive on leash to other animals, so she'll need a dedicated owner who is familiar with managing this behavior. With the right guidance and continued training, Velour has the potential to thrive and become an even more confident and loving dog.

If you're an experienced dog owner looking for an active, playful, and affectionate companion, Velour could be the perfect fit for your home!
