About Hortense(Violet)

Meet Hortense! This sweet 9-month-old mixed-breed girl, weighing about 42 pounds, is a bundle of friendly curiosity and budding confidence. She arrived in Wisconsin in January and is patiently waiting for her forever family. Hortense is eager and engaging, but she's still learning the ropes of good manners and everyday routines, which is perfectly normal for a pup her age. She's crate trained and about 90% house-trained. While she's fostered with cats and gets along with other dogs and children of all ages, she does tend to bark at the cats. She's quite submissive to bigger dogs and is working on being gentle with smaller pups.

Ideal Home

Hortense will thrive in a home that offers consistency, positive reinforcement, and patient guidance as she continues to grow and learn. Her playful puppy energy combined with her sweet nature makes her a wonderful companion for an adopter ready to embrace the joys and responsibilities of raising a young dog.

Ongoing Health

Hortense is spayed and vaccinated.

Training & Support

Hortense is crate trained and 90% house-trained. She is learning to be gentle with smaller dogs and needs continued guidance in managing her barking at cats. Consistency and positive reinforcement will be key to her continued success.
