Virginia is a 3-4 month old medium breed mix (possibly some Australian Shepherd in her!) who weighs a petite 10 pounds and will probably be on the smaller side of medium. This girl is an absolute sweetheart with everyone she meets. She loves people, does wonderfully with kids, gets along great with other dogs, and is fine with cats — making her a perfect fit for nearly any family situation.
Virginia is a playful, pup who loves to jump and "talk" during playtime, and she has this irresistible quality where she gives the sweetest puppy kisses. She's a snuggler at heart and adores sunbathing in a sunny spot. She's enthusiastic about toys, especially balls, and brings that infectious puppy joy to everything she does. Virginia is already showing excellent progress with her training — she's learning commands like "sit," "touch," and recognizing her name, and she's picking up leash walking beautifully.
Here's the best part: Virginia has impeccable house-training instincts. In her first week, she only had one accident, and after a day of play, she actually slept for 7 hours and woke up to signal that she needed to go potty! She sleeps quietly and contentedly in her crate, which makes her an ideal companion for any household.
Virginia is ready to bring her playful spirit, cuddles, and love into your home. If you're looking for a smart, affectionate girl who's already well on her way to being the perfect family dog, Virginia is waiting for you!
