The shelter is a difficult place for a senior pet and sweet and gentle Viola deserves a home that will help her shine in her golden years. Viola recently enjoyed a Shelter Skip Day. Viola was very calm when riding in the car. She may be 8-years-old, but you would never have guessed that she's a senior dog. She has lots of pep in her step and got a burst of energy while enjoying an arboretum. She loved smelling the flowers. She clocked over 10,000 steps on her walk in the park. She also walked around a market and did great! She met tons of strangers and saw a lot dogs and was very calm, though she definitely wanted to play with the other dogs. Two little girls ran up to pet her and she immediately flopped over on her back and demanded belly rubs. It was so adorable! She was also very well-behaved outside of the market despite the crowds. And afterwards she took a nap in the car before going back to the shelter. Come meet Viola today and fall in love! *This pet qualifies for our Sponsored by Simba program's Pets for Veterans: no adoption fee for any military veteran adopting a pet 1 year and older. ** This pet qualifies for our Sponsored by Simba program’s Seniors-for-Seniors offer: no adoption fee for pet 8 years or older by an adopter 65 years and older.
