vela

House trained: Yes Energy level: Medium Noise level: Barks occasionally My foster guardian says: My favorite thing about Vela are the hilarious sounds she makes to communicate with her people! I never knew a dog with such vocal range! Likes: Riding in the car, going for walks, taking naps Hi Im Vela! My foster family describes me as incredibly pleasant and good natured. What a glowing review, right?? They also say Im friendly and easy-going, up for any kind of adventure, and the perfect balance of sassy and sweet! At home Im a very well-behaved girl. I like to keep watch over things, and let my people know if anything suspicious (like a squirrel is approaching the perimeter). But dont worry, my foster family says Im not loud or disruptive, just an alerter! I never chew things up, Im good in my crate overnight and during the day, and Im okay with staying home alone too. Im very polite with sharing my food and toys with humans, and I respect boundaries and am a good listener! Im a curious girl, and I like to see what everyone is up to around the house, but Im not clingy. My foster family says Im the ideal blend of velcro dog and independent queen. Being such a good listener, I know a lot of tricks! I know sit, stay, down, off, come, touch, and some fancy obedience trial ones too! I like to learn, and hope that my forever family will want to keep the trick practice (and treats!) flowing! I also love puzzle toys and brain games. Im a smart cookie, and I love working on a project like a snuffle mat or frozen kong. Something Im working on is being calm outside the house, since I can get overstimulated when there is too much going on. Im practicing walking on a loose leash even when I see something fun to chase, but my foster family says Im easy to re-direct if something startles me or if I get distracted. When Im not lounging at the house or being a training superstar, I love to go on adventures! Im the perfect errand buddy, because I love riding in the car, and Ill happily sit up front and keep the driver company! I know Im supposed to stay in the back, but it would be rude to not greet my chauffeur when they come back to the car after a stop, right?? I cant wait to find my forever family, and go on all the adventures, and share all the snacks, and give all my love to them! If you think we might be a match, apply to adopt me today!
