About Vivienne
Hi there, my name is Vivienne but my friends call me Viv or Vivvy! I am a young and social pup who's on the lookout for a very special forever family.
I came to the shelter as a stray so my background is a bit unknown but I am thought to be a Border Collie x German Sheppard puppy - both of which are highly intelligent and active breeds. For this reason, I will need a family who is equally as active and ready to put a lot of effort in training me and keeping me mentally stimulated, I would also be best suited to a house with a yard. I have spent some time in foster with another dog and a cat, both of who I liked; but I am quite boisterous and playful, so some dogs may find me a bit too much at times. If you have another dog at home it would be best to bring them in to meet me so we can make sure our energy levels match. I am slowly getting the hang of toilet training and am great with my sit cues but being as young as I am there is still so much to learn, so I will need lots of ongoing positive reinforcement training and my family to be patient with me while I get the hang of things. I am teething and love to chew everything and anything, so it is essential that I am giving plenty of toys and chews to act as a safe outlet for these behaviours, otherwise I might just have a little nibble on your fingers or shoes (oops!). I have a very thick and fluffy coat that keeps me very warm and sometimes I prefer to sleep on the tiles or cool off by dipping my feet in my water. I don't mind being on my own and it's important my family gives me some alone time regularly so I can learn not to stress when they have to go about their daily human tasks; but since I am a puppy I would recommend supervising me when I first go to my home to make sure I am not getting into anything I shouldn't! I am a very sweet and loveable pup who would be a great addition to the right family - if you are interested in meeting me, please enquire with one of the staff.
Lots of Love, Vivienne xoxo
