Venice - a gorgeous name for a gorgeous dog! This handsome boy came into the shelter as a stray alongside Viola A039116 on 10/26/22. He was probably somebody's pet at some point as he came in already knowing how to sit on command. Poor boy was covered in fleas - they were so bad he was missing spots of hair! Thanks to the flea/tick prevention medicine we gave him it's cleared up nicely.

The thing Venice loves most in this world is a good squeaky toy. He thinks they're so much fun! He'll happily spend all day with one…or as long as the toy holds up. He likes having human company, but he doesn't need it to have fun. He'll play all by himself! He has an average energy level and will happily accept you petting him. He also loves to lick! Venice gets along with other dogs (though he does have a dominant personality type) and has passed our in shelter cat test. He listens really well - especially to the word "no," and he learns quickly. He already knows how to sit on command and is potty trained. He's gotten along well with young children in a previous foster home.
