Story
Hi, I'm Violet! I am a very sweet, energetic girl who is looking for an experienced pet-parent to help me become the awesome dog my current family knows I can be! I love to cuddle with my human family and am very smart, but I have trouble getting along with my dog-sister and cat-brother. I play way too rough with them, and therefore need a home where I can be an only-pet. My family loves me a lot but also recognizes the commitment they made to their other pets first, and so are looking for a loving new home for me. I have a good sense of humor but am a little mischievous, so I do best when I'm kept stimulated and tired out. My humans have taught me to go potty outside, but they're having some trouble convincing me to ONLY go outside, so we are still working on that. I LOVE bully sticks, drinking out of the tub faucet, and looking out the bedroom window and watching the cars. (And my current family won't just give it to me, but I love marinara sauce and will sneak it any chance I get!)
