Take the Pet Home
Viola is a smart, energetic, and sweet puppy. She is curious and does the cutest head tilt when she is asked a question or hears a new sound. She has the prettiest grey-brown eyes, large floppy ears, and huge white paws-she will be growing into all of these adorable features soon enough! Viola is mostly potty trained and has learned to sit for treats when she comes in. She is quiet except when she goes in her kennel- she will whine and howl to let you know she’d rather be hanging out with you! After a few minutes, she settles down and starts chewing on her favorite toys. Viola sleeps through the night. While she did great in her crate overnight, she really prefers to snuggle with her foster mom at bedtime and those puppy dog eyes are hard to resist!
Viola LOVES other dogs and would be so happy to have another dog to play with! Her current foster brother does not like to play, though he will snuggle with her, and she likes that too. She also likes to play tag with her current foster kitten sisters, although sometimes she needs reminders to not play roughly. She doesn’t realize how big she is! When the kittens let her know they’ve had enough, she respectfully backs up and watches them, her whole back end wagging. Viola loves chewing on her favorite toys (and anything else she can get her paws on!) and playing tug of war. She likes to chase balls but hasn’t mastered bringing them back yet. When she needs a break from playing, she loves snuggles!
Viola is friendly with all humans, dogs, and cats. She loves her smaller foster humans, although she is working on her manners to not knock them over when she’s excited to see them! She loves to greet people and get pets and see who will play with her! Viola can be timid when she is unsure of a place or situation. She had to be carried into the neighbor’s house to watch football, but once she sniffed around and saw her humans were still with her, she ran around like she owned the place in no time. On her first walk, she was terrified that we were leaving home and not going to come back! But once her foster brother showed her all the fun things to do on walks, like sniff, mark, and see new things, she confidently completed her walk and now loves going out to explore.
This sweet girl would love to find a home with a playmate and patient and snuggly humans.
Viola is from Texas.
