Meet Velveeta, a nearly 1.5-year-old Shepherd mix who packs brains, energy, and affection into her 40-pound frame. This playful girl is always ready for adventure, whether it’s hiking trails, going for runs, or playing fetch in the backyard. She's your perfect sidekick through everyday life. Velveeta exemplifies fun-loving companionship. She's social and goofy, adoring the company of other dogs. She would thrive best in a home with another active, playful pup who can keep up with her lively spirit. An active person or family is ideal for her, as she craves inclusion in all activities. Once playtime winds down, Velveeta shows her affectionate side. She follows you like a little shadow, forming strong bonds and needing to be close to her humans. She's crate trained, housebroken with a schedule, and eager to please. This young girl is still full of personality and requires both exercise and attention to feel her best. Velveeta did test positive for ehrlichia exposure, meaning she had a tick exposure at some point, but currently, she shows no symptoms and feels great. Treatment, if required in the future, is straightforward and affordable. If you’re looking for a loyal adventure buddy or a playful companion for your current dog, Velveeta may be the one you've been waiting for. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
