Meet sweet Vivian...or as her friends call her, Vivi!! The name suits her, Vivi has tons of VVVVVVVVRROOOOM!! She is just 9 months old and we think she is part Chihuahua and part Jack Russel Terrier. As a home that has loved JRT's and adore their personalities, Vivi fits the bill. She has the look as well, a nice little JRT face with perhaps more of the Chi size. She is just a petite 10 pounds.
Vivi was at a very large and busy shelter, where she was very well taken care of, but she was a bit overwhelmed with all the hustle and bustle. She was not settling in well and certainly not letting her little sunshine of a personality light up. Happens so often, it is just a tough environment and really hard to get a good read on who this little dog really is. So, she came out to us and joined our crew, and boy, did she shine!
The first moments she was very cautious, but she checked us out and we passed the sniff test, lol. Vivi is great with the other dogs but has made Joey, another foster dog( a young maltipoo) her best pal. The two of them LOVE to zoom around the yard and play tag. Although Vivi can be a very active dog, she is also a world class snuggler. If there is a lap to be had, she will claim it as her own. Vivi has been doing great with her housebreaking, we do take very frequent breaks outside and her new family will need to continue to reinforce her training.
Vivi will do best in an active home, a fenced yard with another active dog would be great. She is shy meeting new people, so she could use some patience and understanding that she is not going to warm up right away, she can be a little cautious. We think she will be fine with older kids, no little ones at this time. She is a wonderful little dog and will be lucky person/family's best pal!!
Her adoption fee is $400. Please email Kristine with your info/application at joysparrows@gmail.com.
