Vivienne

Allow me to introduce Vivienne, also known as "Vivi!"  This precious little girl is 2.5 yo spayed female, she is fully house broken, and a master snuggler.  She is currently living with her foster mom after giving birth. She is still getting back to her pre-baby shape, and is approximately 50 lbs. She needs to add a bit more weight, however, Vivienne is definitely a "fun size" shepherd.  She is a very petite and dainty lady.  Vivi's foster mom wants to assure any potential adopters not to let her petite frame fool you; she is a true german shepherd and is a tremendous watchdog, and means that literally.  One of Vivi's pastimes is to sit by the front door and simply watch.  She is very alert and loves to wait for the Amazon deliveries!  She barks and lets Shawn know with her a package has arrived even before Alexa can say "motion detected at the front."  The girl has a job!

Vivienne is a love bug! She currently lives with two other GSD's, Beau is a 103 lb male and they are best playmates.  Tug of war is their favorite game and it lasts forever.  Beau  and Vivi often nap together and she will just rest her weary head on his hind end.  All of this to say, she gets along well with other dogs. LOL 

Her other roommate is a very snarky 5 yo female, Finnian.  Finnian really wishes that she were an only child, so having brother Beau and a foster  is mission difficult to say the least.  Let it be said that the magic of Vivi has broken the ice princess!!  Finn has caught herself having a grand time running about outside in a good old game of tag and chase with Miss Vivi! Vivienne is personality ++ for sure. 

As for children, Vivienne spent time with my 6 yo grandson during Christmas and was an angel.  She showed all of us that she knew how to mind boundaries.  Beau and Finn were not excited to share "their" boy at first, so Vivi took a back seat and waited her turn.  After supper Wyatt layed down on the couch and Vivi took the opportunity to snuggle up right next him.  She is a very kind and loving little spirit. 

Alright so nobody is perfect, not even Miss Vivienne.  She definitely needs to work on her manners and commands .  We have the command sit down for sure.  

Yes, that is it.  Stay tuned.  

She may have been a little mistreated in the past so I have been slow to discipline, she will cower when she knows you're disappointed.  She will need a special someone who is willing to be gentle and patient.  This little girl will NOT  do well with yelling or a heavy hand.  She is such a precious loving girl and deserves that in return.
