About Vivian

Meet Vivian, the pup who embodies resilience and affection. Like the character in her namesake movie, she got lost in the hustle and bustle of life, tossed aside without a second thought. Discarded at a dog park in Houston, this sweet girl, weighing just 9 pounds, deserves her happy ending just as much as anyone. Vivian, around 4 to 5 years old, is charming and oh-so-lovable. She thrives on companionship and affection, eager to snuggle up and warm laps as your personal cuddle buddy. After receiving medical care for a hernia, she's been spayed and fully vaccinated, ready to find her forever home. Her backstory only adds depth to her character, revealing a little diva with a big heart and an even bigger craving for love. While she enjoys the company of other dogs and is friendly with cats, Vivian has a tiny quirk: she prefers her lap time all to herself and may give a playful reminder to anyone who tries to intrude. This doesn’t make her mean by any means; it’s just a part of her endearing personality. Future adopters should be aware of this little trait and help her keep the balance when sharing space with other furry friends. This loveable girl is ready for a home that understands her story and embraces her as the special treasure she truly is. Let's make her next chapter one filled with love and happiness.
