My story

Meet Venus Venus may be named after a goddess, and honestly? She lives up to it. Venus is full of love, wiggles, and the very best intentions — including her habit of trotting up to greet you with a gift in her mouth. It might be a toy, it might be a tuft of husky fur she found on the floor, but either way, it's from the heart. Venus is a moderate energy girl who is equally happy romping around with her dog friends as she is melting into the couch for a good cuddle session. She loves other dogs, adores children of all ages, ignores cats, and has even been spotted giving the chickens kisses and rolling over for them. Her prey drive is basically nonexistent — she's a lover, not a hunter. She's shy when she first meets new people, but don't let that fool you — her tail is always wagging. It's only a matter of minutes before Venus decides you're her new favorite person. She walks nicely on a leash, already knows sit, and is working hard on more commands every day. She's a quick learner with tons of potential just waiting to shine. Venus is still working on crate training and potty training, and she may voice her strong opinions about bedtime for about 30 minutes before settling in. She's also a passionate eater who will need a slow feeder bowl, because this girl does not believe in taking her time at dinner. These are small things for the right patient family, and she is absolutely worth it. Car rides? Love them. Being pampered? Obsessed. Bringing her humans random gifts just because she adores them? It's basically her love language. Venus is looking for: A warm home with patient humans, maybe some dog siblings to play with, and someone who will always accept her gifts graciously — no matter what they are. *Estimate DOB 12/12/2025 *Spayed, up to date in age appropriate vaccines and microchipped *Dog, Cat & Kid Friendly Adoption Fee: $350 Apply here to add her to your family! peaceloveandpawsrescue.com/adopt%2Ffoster-application

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Venus, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
