My story

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

Hi there, my name is Vela and I am a three year old gal weighing in at a perfect thirty three pounds. I might seem a little shy when we first meet, I like to take a moment to read the room and make sure everything feels safe and cozy. Give me just a little time and I promise you will see my true colors shine through.

Once I warm up, I turn into the sweetest cuddle bug you could imagine. I love gentle affection and quiet moments together, the kind where we can just sit close and enjoy each other’s company. I am pretty independent too, so I am happy to entertain myself and I do not need to be the center of attention all the time. Easy come easy go, that is kind of my motto.

I get along well with other dogs and would be just fine sharing my world with a canine friend, though I am also perfectly content being your one and only. I would do best with someone who understands that good things are worth waiting for and that a soft heart like mine just needs a little patience to blossom.

If you are looking for a gentle soul with a loving heart and a calm, steady presence, I might just be your girl.

Vela's adoption fee is $275. You can learn more about Vela and other dogs at Happy Bark by visiting www.happybark.org
