Meet the enchanting Violet! 🌟 This 4-5 year old Labrador Retriever mix, weighing in at about 40 lbs, is on a journey from timid to terrific! When Violet first arrived at K-9 Lifesavers, she was a frightened little soul who had seen more than her fair share of rough days. But just like a fabulous phoenix rising from the ashes, she’s beginning to blossom! 🌸 With a touch of love, patience, and understanding, Violet is learning to trust the world around her. Now, she’s ready to find an experienced adopter who can help her unfurl her beautiful personality. Violet thrives in homes filled with love and encouragement, perhaps even with another confident pup to show her the ropes! 🐕 She’s friendly with fellow dogs, but humans? Well, they’re a little scary for her still. That’s right—she’s a shy girl still learning to navigate the world. Because she didn't grow up in a city environment, Violet will need a family with a single-family home that has a large fenced yard. Why? Because she doesn’t yet know how to walk on a leash and can’t do her business outside on one, so having space to explore safely is a must! 🏡 Imagine helping her discover the joy of roaming freely and how glorious it feels to trust again. Isn’t that just heart-melting? Although Violet will require a refresher in house-training, K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends that all new adopters participate in obedience training to foster a smoother transition. This way, Violet can hop into her new home, feeling socialized and forming a wonderfully special bond with her new family! 🤗 Oh, what’s that? An adoption fee of $400? Not to worry! It covers everything from basic vet care, to spay/neuter surgery, vaccinations, and even heartworm prevention while she’s with K-9 Lifesavers. They ensure that every pup gets the attention and care they need to shine! 🌟 If you have the heart and home for this sweet girl, she’s just waiting for you. So why wait?
