About Violet
Violet is a 5-year-old Labrador Retriever mix living in Washington, DC. She entered rescue timid and unsure but has made steady progress with the help of her foster. She still startles easily and finds people intimidating, but warms up more quickly around other confident dogs and will likely do best in a quiet, patient household. Violet does well with other dogs but does not get along with cats. She’s looking for an experienced adopter who knows how to support a fearful rescue—someone who can patiently help her build trust step by step. Violet will not thrive in a city or apartment setting; a single-family home with a large securely fenced yard is needed since she doesn’t yet walk or potty on leash. While she is house trained, she’ll need ongoing support and some basic training to keep progressing. If you want to make a difference for a dog who truly needs a second chance, Violet is waiting for someone willing to meet her where she is and help her move forward. Your new best friend is just one click away. K-9 Lifesavers ensures every dog is spayed, vaccinated, and checked for parasites and heartworm before adoption. Adoption fees help cover these essential services and more.
