Personality:
Sweet as they come, Violet is a happy, friendly little girl who has already mastered the art of stealing hearts. She loves a good toy, but people are her absolute favourite. She will happily wander over for a cuddle, snuggle right into you, and flop into your lap as if that's exactly where she belongs. She settles into new environments quickly and is eager to explore the world by your side. While she can be a little unsure at times, she takes her confidence from her people and is quick to bounce back with a little reassurance.
Tamariki – Any age provided correct intros and supervision.
Cats – Cats ok with supervision and training.
Kūri – Needs socialisation and confidence building.
Stock/poultry – Untested.
Size – Currently 9.5kgs. Likely to mature large - extra large.
Ideal home:
Violet is likely to grow into a very big dog, so now is the perfect time to teach her the manners and boundaries that will help her become a wonderful adult companion. She will thrive with positive training, plenty of socialisation with both people and other dogs, and a family committed to continuing her learning. Puppy preschool is highly recommended to help this clever girl build confidence and set her up for success.
Looking for a best friend who thinks cuddles are life's greatest achievement? Violet is already waiting.
