VIOLET

What's your dog’s favorite toy and/or go-to treat?

This brave girl has been a blood donor for many other animals over her life. After every donation, she gets peanut butter which is her favorite thing in the world. Second, would be Mom’s homemade bread.

What is your favorite thing about your dog?

She is the most patient, loving, independent yet knows exactly when I need her. She’s my soul dog. She was my Dog of Honor. She’s one of the best things that happened to me and I feel so grateful that she’s a part of my family.

Why should your dog be America’s Favorite?

Violet is a “shelter special” that came to me when I was working at an animal shelter in Washington DC. Since then, we have moved all over the country, and she has been the only constant in my life for the last 8 years. She’s strong, steadfast, loving and kind. She takes to new people, situations, animals all with love and kindness. I wish for every dog lover to have a dog life her, she would change your life. She did mine.
