Hi, I’m
VIVIENNE!

Vivienne is a friendly loyal girl who loves her human and dog friends. She loves to lounge in the sun during the day, go for slow walks, and cuddle up in a blanket, bed, or couch in the evening. She is very curious about other dogs and has made several friends at the kennel. During the warmer season she LOVES water and will splash in a pool or stick her face in her water bowl to blow bubbles. She entertains herself with squeaky toys and throws them in the air while pouncing. She’s not the best at fetch but is cute to watch throw her toys around.

Vivienne can be a talker and has all kinds of fun grumbles and woofs to express herself. She can be suspicious of new people and things, but her confidence continues to grow, and with the youth’s help, she is blossoming. Her leash walking skills continue to grow, and she is learning to love obstacle training.

Vivienne needs a family who will take it slow and open her world up at her pace. She does not take long to adjust but does best with a few days to settle and feel safe. This is true with dog friends as well. Vivienne is a herding breed and has a natural tendency to chase things that move fast. She has not been tested with small animals. We are uncertain how she would be with cats, she’s very curious. It's not recommended to place her in a home with cats due to what we know about herding breeds.

Characteristics:

• Love water—pools, sprinklers—you name it, she likes it!

• Enjoys a good snuggle

• Walks well on leash

• Can relax/chill on her own

• Enjoys playing
