Vela

House trained: Yes<br/><br/>Energy level: Medium<br/><br/>Noise level: Barks occasionally <br/><br/>My foster guardian says: “My favorite thing about Vela is how hard she tries to be a lap dog! ”<br/><br/>Likes: Hikes, playing at the dog park, riding in the car, snuggling <br/><br/> <br/><br/>Hi, I’m Vela (rhymes with Shelia)! <br/><br/>I’m a super happy, playful girl who absolutely loves her people. Seriously, if you look up loyal in the dictionary, I’ll be there. Well, okay, not actually. But I could be! <br/><br/>Even though I have a certain love for my person, I’m a friendly lady with other people too! I like to make friends on walks and at the park. I love to play with other dogs, and have a great time at daycare while my foster mom is working. I’m also crate trained, and good about staying home alone if it isn’t a daycare day. I love snacks and toys, and as queen of the house, I believe that I should have as many of both as I want! I’m sure my future subjects…er, family, will agree. <br/><br/>I’m a smart cookie, and I’ve already learned a bunch of new tricks since coming to D.C. I know ‘sit’, ‘stay’, ‘off’, and ‘leave it’. I’m also totally crate trained and potty trained. I’d like to learn a lot more tricks with my new forever family, so get your treats ready! <br/><br/>So if you’re looking for a spunky cuddlebug who will keep the couch warm while you’re at work, and greet you with all the joy in the world when you’re back, look no further! For real-a, you need a Vela!
