Vivian |

Vivian · #751195 3 Years Old · Pit Bull Mix · Female
|
Meet our dear sweet Vivian. Found cruising the streets with her puppy, Vivian and her tiny tot were delivered to the HSSA for a second chance. Her puppy found a home right away, but Viv is having a hard time. While recovering in staff offices from surgery to remove a mass from her eyelid, Vivian proved to be house trained, completely trustworthy to leave overnight and a huge fan of all people. She warms up to visitors immediately and rests her big chin on your lap, looking up at you with admiration and sheer joy. Although Vivian adores humans of all ages, she needs a cat-free home and will need to meet any canine members of your family. Vivian has a vocal and rowdy play style that can be off-putting to some dogs. But her kennel mate thinks she's a total blast! If you're looking for an easygoing dog who is happy to sleep all day and cuddle all evening, get to know Vivian today at the HSSA!
