About Violet

Meet Violet, a lovable medium-sized dog currently being fostered in Houston, TX. She was rescued just in time from a crowded shelter where her demodex condition put her on the kill list. Fortunately, she’s now thriving and has a beautiful, clear coat after treatment. At approximately 3 years old and weighing about 30 lbs, Violet enjoys the company of her canine friends at doggie daycare, where she plays and splashes around in the water. All this sweet girl wants is a comfy bed, some tasty food and treats, along with plenty of belly rubs and a loving family to call her own. Violet gets along well with dogs, and she’s fine with older kids. She’s spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and even housetrained, which makes her ready for adoption. Out-of-state transportation can be arranged for her forever home. Ready to make an awesome companion like Violet a part of your family? Click apply to start the adoption process.
