About Viola

Border Collie / Lab
Age: Young Puppy
Sex: Female

Viola is fostered in Milton, FL (Santa Rosa County). We are a foster-based rescue and always looking for foster families. Viola is an 11-week-old pup estimated to be 40-50 lbs fully grown. She will require a home with herding dog experience and a physically, fully fenced yard. Viola is very sweet and high energy. She is the bravest of her litter. She is small but assertive and doesn't allow her siblings to push her around. She does ask for reassurance when she experiences something out of the ordinary, but she is overall outgoing and very curious. She's displayed the border collie tendency to notice when something is out of place and will bark to let everyone know something is amiss. She is not afraid to stick up to her siblings. Viola is working on the basics of clicker training and picking it up quickly. She needs a family that understands how to work with herding dogs and keep them busy. These pups respond very well to positive reinforcement, patience, and redirection. They are smart and are eager to please. Housetraining is going very well. The only times they have accidents inside is when they are playing and distracted and forget to ask to go out. They're very good at using pee pads when an emergency does arise. These pups will do best with a canine older sibling that will interact with them and play with them. They often look to each other for reassurance now. These pups are very food-motivated and will need reminders of their manners around it. Viola will go home on a spay contract - once proof of spay is submitted within the specified time frame, $50 of her adoption donation can be refunded. Viola is up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccines, preventives, and microchipped.
