About Violet (SC)

Sweet 13-year-old Violet is a petite pup of 13 lbs. with an irresistibly adorable face that melts hearts! Violet's personality blossoms more every day. She's still figuring out whether she's a lapdog, but she enjoys being near her people, doesn't mind being picked up, and always greets you at the door with a joyful wag. She gets along well with her three canine foster siblings, though she hasn't shown much interest in play. She's also friendly with new visitors. Violet is fully house-trained and will let you know when she needs to go outside by going to the door. She sleeps through the night in her bed next to her foster parents.



Violet loves spending time outside and enjoys leisurely walks or trotting around her fenced backyard. She walks beautifully on a leash. Indoors, while she's cautious around long staircases, she's perfectly comfortable navigating a few steps.



Violet is partially deaf; she responds to loud sounds like clapping or barking but doesn't react to softer noises, including voices. She's a quiet girl who rarely barks, usually only when a stranger comes to the house. She also has mild cataracts, but her vision remains good. Violet requires daily prescription eye ointment (around $65/month) and prescription drops twice a day (about $25/month). She also takes arthritis medication and gabapentin at night to prevent seizures and has been seizure-free for over six months with this regimen.



Violet is a special senior girl with so much love to give. She's looking for a calm, caring home where she can continue to blossom and be cherished in her golden years. Want to see more of Violet? Check out her photo album at https://imageevent.com/newrattitude/violetv
