Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Violet has got to be one of the most well mannered dogos we have ever rescued! This girl clearly knows how good life is now that she is safe and loved with the rescue. She LOVES everyone she meets and could not be any more awesome if she tried to be! She is dog friendly and now that she has recovered from her surgeries, mama Violet's true loving colors are starting to show. She loves fetching a ball, playing with toys, and recently showed us she likes to play and swim in the water!
There is not one complaint about this girl to share, because she is perfect! Violet was saved out of an Orlando shelter after being found as a stray on the streets. She has clearly been used as a breeding factory and was extremely underweight. She was very frail and didn't have much energy along with having several mammory masses. Thankfully, they were all benign masses and she is now a healthy fabulous loving dogo! We don't know anything about her past and still can't understand how she was left to fend for herself.
Violet is very well mannered and obedient, more than any rescue we have ever seen! She knows all the commands and is wonderful walking on leash, which she LOVES going on walks! She loves going places on car rides and meeting new people too. We don't know how she is around cats or kids in a home but was nice to them out in public and at the vet's office.
If you don't like getting love and kisses from a dog, Violet is not the dog for you! She loves to show how much you mean to her and really enjoys hanging out with her people. This girl is truly special and deserves a loving home that will spoil her in a way that she deserves.
If you would like to donate towards Violet's previous medical bills you can go to dcdogos.org/donate or you can shop on her Amazon List at this LINK.
