Violet

My story

Violet is a 6-month-old German Shepherd mix. She and her siblings were born on the streets in South Texas. They wondered onto a man’s property when they were about 3 months old and he kept them safe until he could find help. A few were given away and the remaining four were all female (Ruby, Lola, Mia and Violet). Magnolia Animal Rescue stepped in to help, fearing if given away they would not receive the care they needed. Violet is spayed, up to date on vaccinations and current on heartworm preventatives. All four girls are very intelligent dogs but will need some patience while they adjust to a home environment. These girls have not lived the easiest life so they will definitely show their gratitude by being a loyal companion. Due to her rough start, Violet can be a little fearful in exploring new surroundings. She is currently working on basic commands and learning the joys of being a house dog. She loves playing with toys, especially balls and appreciates having regular meals. Violet is working on potty training and will need further training to walk well on a leash. She can pancake when scared but by allowing her to go at her own pace she is learning that new can be fun. Violet kennels well and seems to enjoy the safety of her crate so she will quietly hang out chewing a bone. Violet is nervous at first with new dogs but is dog friendly and enjoys playing with the dogs in her foster home. Violet will need continued training with her new family to grow into her potential. Please submit your application, and a representative of Magnolia Animal Rescue will contact you. Note: We always respond first to inquiries that tell us something about your living situation (house, apartment, single, family, etc.) and why you want this dog. Be sure to include your phone number in your inquiry. We call inquiries that are a good fit for the dog.

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