Meet Velvet, a pocket-sized sweetheart with a big personality! This playful, affectionate girl is looking for a loving home where she can share endless cuddles and adventures.

She's a certified kissing champion, always ready to shower her companions with love. Beyond her snuggly nature, she enjoys running around the yard, playing with toys, and exploring. After a good play session, she settles down nicely for some quality couch time. This dog-friendly gal gets along with both large and small dogs, but is still learning to manage her excitement during play.

Potty trained and crate trained, Velvet can sleep through the night comfortably, but her ideal setting would keep her close to her humans. Velvet would thrive in an active home, ideally with older children who appreciate her playful spirit. She’s a strong little girl, so a patient family willing to help her build confidence will be perfect. With her sweet face and loving heart, Velvet is ready to be someone’s loyal little shadow.
