My story

Velma may be small, but she’s full of life, love, and personality. This playful and affectionate girl is ready to find a forever home where she can shine. Velma is dog-friendly and has previously lived with other dogs, and she would do best in a home with another playful pup to match her energy. She’s curious, loving, silly, and always up for a game or snuggle. Velma is house-trained and knows how to use a doggy door and stairs with ease. She’s trustworthy when left alone and doesn’t need to be crated—she actually prefers it that way. She walks well on a leash and absolutely loves meeting new people, always greeting them with a wagging tail and happy demeanor. Velma already knows her basic commands like "sit" and "stay," and she’s eager to please. Although she hasn’t been around cats or children, Velma thrives on attention from her humans and would love a home where she can be included in daily life. She's active and playful, so a yard and a canine companion would make her happiest. If you're looking for a sweet, social, and spirited little dog to share your life with, Velma just might be the perfect match. She’s ready to fill your home with laughter, love, and a whole lot of tail wags. ❤️

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Velma, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
