Viviana

My story

QUICK FACTS Name: Viviana Age: About 5 Years Old Gender: Female (Spayed) Breed: Bichon Color: White Weight: 5kg / 11lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY I was rescued from an illegal breeding facility, where my life had been shaped by circumstances beyond my control. Thankfully, rescuers stepped in and brought me to safety, giving me a second chance to experience kindness, comfort, and proper care. Now, I’m looking forward to leaving that chapter behind and beginning a brighter future as a cherished companion in a loving forever family.   MY HEALTH All vaccinations up-to-date Spayed & healthy with no known health issues   MY PERSONALITY Hi, I’m Viviana! I’m a cheerful, sociable little girl with sparkling eyes and a personality that makes it incredibly easy to fall in love with me. My coat is currently quite short, but I’ll be an absolutely beautiful, fluffy Bichon once it grows out. For now, I have those wonderfully expressive eyes and a sweet little face that seem to do a pretty good job of winning people over all on their own! I’m naturally outgoing and comfortable around people, even those I’ve only just met. Rather than waiting for someone to approach me, I’ll happily make the first move, asking to be petted, rubbing my little backside against them, or climbing right into their lap. I don’t seem to have much hesitation around unfamiliar humans. Making new friends comes quite naturally to me! I’d love a family who sees my potential and somewhere along the way, you’ll get to watch my fluffy Bichon coat grow back while discovering just how much personality is packed into this sweet little girl. After my difficult beginning, I’m ready for a family who will give me the time and stability to make my next home my forever one.   MY SOCIAL SKILLS · With People: I’m naturally friendly and affectionate with people, and I happily approach both familiar faces and new people to say hello and ask for attention. I enjoy leaning in for affection and am comfortable being petted, even by someone I’ve just met. I’m also comfortable being gently picked up with an arm supporting me under my belly. I haven’t had experience with children under 13 yet, so my comfort level with younger kids is still unknown. · With Dogs: I’m comfortable approaching unfamiliar dogs to say hello, but I generally prefer a friendly greeting rather than engaging in play. I tend to get along well with dogs around my own size, and if another dog tries to provoke me, I usually choose to walk away and avoid conflict rather than engage. · With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown   ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY I have a moderate energy level – I enjoy spending time outdoors, but I’m also happy to settle down and relax afterward. I’m especially interested in all the interesting smells around me, so my walks tend to involve plenty of stops to sniff and explore rather than walking at a steady pace. I’m still gaining experience with walks, and unfamiliar or frightening situations can make me nervous enough to lie flat on the ground. I feel much more comfortable walking in quiet, peaceful areas, while busy roads with lots of traffic can be overwhelming for me. With patience, gentle reassurance, and gradual exposure to new surroundings, I can continue building my confidence and learning to enjoy walks at my own pace.   TRAINING & HABITS I don’t guard my food around people or other dogs. When there’s something I really want, I may use barking to let you know, and I may also bark when I see someone unfamiliar. With consistent guidance and positive training, I can continue learning calmer ways to communicate. I’m calm and settled when I’m in a kennel I’m comfortable using both indoor pee pads and going potty outdoors.   MY IDEAL HOME I’m searching for a patient, loving family who can help me become the best version of myself. I’ll thrive in a home with: A family that will provide me with a safe haven – where I can relax, feel secure, and be myself in a stable environment A family that understands my past and is patient with me throughout A family that enjoys indoor and outdoor time together A family that will love and cherish me forever   SPECIAL NOTES    VIVIANA'S YOUTUBE PLAYLIST   Apply to foster or adopt: https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.com ##2864691##
