VIOLA - GERMAN SHORTHAIRED POINTER (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: German Shorthaired Pointer (short coat). Meet Viola – A Gentle Soul With a Goofy Streak Viola is a beautiful young GSP who is equal parts sweet, curious, and delightfully goofy. She’s been blossoming in her foster home, showing off her loving nature, gentle energy, and a growing eagerness to explore the world. Whether she’s watching birds from the window, “helping” in the garden, or trotting alongside you on a walk, Viola is happiest when she’s near her people and soaking up the sounds and scents around her. Viola enjoys twice-daily walks, prefers dirt paths to sidewalks, and is at her best when she has access to open spaces and plenty of nature. She’s learning cues like “sit,” “stay,” and “come,” and she’s starting to understand fun tricks like “boop” (a gentle nose tap to your hand!). She has a soft spot for Kongs, antlers, and stuffies, and loves relaxing near the window or checking in on the neighborhood birds. When she’s feeling extra playful, she enjoys romping with her foster dog sibling, Maverick. Viola’s Ideal Forever Home Viola would thrive in a calm, active home with plenty of companionship, routine, and opportunities for daily exercise. She’d love a person or family who enjoys outdoor adventures and can include her in their day-to-day life. Another friendly dog in the home would be a bonus! Her foster describes her as a “sweetheart with a gentle soul”—a dog who’s coming out of her shell more each day. She’s observant, thoughtful, and loves learning how to be part of a family.

Every day she grows more confident, more affectionate, and more curious.

With patience and love, Viola will reward her forever family with trust, loyalty, and a lifetime of companionship.
