If you're looking for a dog who wants to be your best friend, meet Vivi. She's happiest just being with her human. Second to that is saying hi to every person she sees on the street. She wiggles her entire body when she's happy! She loves walking and going outside and is very curious about everything she sees. Vivi is 2 yrs old so she still has some puppy behaviours. She is learning that the birds are her friends tho I can tell she really wants to fly like them. She will get the zoomies every so often and loves to run around. It's so sweet to watch her crinkle her forehead when she sees something and you can tell she's processing it. Since she's only 2, Vivi could use some basic training but she's quickly learned to sit and stay while I put down her water and food bowls and we're working on leash behaviors. She will be your very best friend & snuggle with you on the couch.
Vivi is approximately 2y 5m 4d old and is fully grown at 55 pounds. They are microchipped and up to date on all age-appropriate medical care. Their breed is unknown as we have not had a DNA test done.
Although our dogs are listed as unknown breed, buildings with specific dog restrictions typically enforce their rules based on what breeds a dog appears to resemble. It's always important to keep that in mind and know your building's policies before adopting a dog.
This dog is available for adoption through Muddy Paws Rescue. If you're interested in adopting, the first thing you should do is begin the registration process at www.muddypawsrescue.org.

Every dog is an individual — temperament depends far more on this dog's history and personality than on breed. The rescue's write-up is the best guide.
Most adult dogs do well with 30-60 minutes of walking a day plus play and sniffing time.
Ask the rescue about leash manners, elevator and stair comfort, alone-time tolerance, and whether the dog settles in a small space.
