About Viennetta
Meet Viennetta – The Merle Queen of Quirks, Wiggles, and Woo-woos!
Looking for a sweet, loyal, and slightly dramatic herdy girl? Say hello to Viennetta! With her stunning merle coat, intelligent eyes, and signature Kelpie sass, this girl is a total heart-stealer — once you’re in her circle, you’re in for life.
Viennetta can be a little nervous in new situations and takes a moment to warm up, but once she feels safe, her personality shines. Expect excited wiggles, joyful zoomies, and peak Kelpie vocals (yes, she talks… a lot). She’s got that classic working-dog energy: sensitive, clever, and always tuned into her people.
She’s currently living with other dogs and is learning the ropes quickly — she's social and enjoys having doggy mates, especially those who respect her space and energy. She’s also developing quite the reputation as a sock collector, so don’t be surprised if your laundry starts disappearing!
Viennetta’s Dream Home
A patient and understanding family who will give her the time and space to gain confidence at her own pace.
A home familiar with herding breeds or willing to learn — she’s a vocal communicator and may “woo-woo” her feelings when excited or unsure.
Continued training and enrichment — puppy school or similar is a must for her development, and she’d thrive with a family who wants to keep her mentally stimulated.
A home with or without other dogs — she’s dog-friendly and enjoys the company of canine pals but would also be happy as your one-and-only with the right support.
A secure backyard for zoomies, sniffy games, and general herdy-dog shenanigans.
Compatibility Check!
Dogs? Yep! She gets along well with others and would enjoy a calm and friendly companion.
Cats? Not tested, but slow intros may be possible.
Kids? Older, dog-savvy children (8+) would be best, as she’s still learning not to be too enthusiastic when she’s excited or unsure.
Energy & Lifestyle Needs
Viennetta is a high-IQ gal with a soft heart and a dash of drama. She thrives on routine, connection, and positive guidance. She’ll need:
✔️ Daily exercise and enrichment to keep her mind and body busy
✔️ Training that’s consistent, kind, and fun — she’s a clever cookie!
✔️ A home that doesn’t mind a little chatter — she’s got opinions and she’s not afraid to share them
If you’re ready to welcome a loyal, loving, and totally gorgeous herdy girl into your life — one who might “woo-woo” at your delivery man and steal your socks, but will also love you to pieces — then Viennetta just might be your perfect match.

Adoption details
We ask all people looking to adopt to fill in our adoption enquiry form.
For Cats: https://form.jotform.co/92940837256870
For Dogs: https://form.jotform.co/80677377750872
Please use these links rather than the 'Enquire' button on the pet's PetRescue profile to streamline your enquiry.
Our foster carer will contact you when we receive your application to arrange a time for you to meet with their foster pet.
We want your adoption through Maggie's to be a good experience so we will occasionally suggest a different cat or dog that may suit your situation better and the needs of the individual pet.
All our pets leave for their new homes on a two-week trial. At the end of the trial, we will transfer the microchip into your name and provide you with the pets vet certificates. Once you receive the Certificate of Identification from council, your adoption will be complete.
Please consider, that a Maggie's Pet is a pet for Life, before adopting.
