About Vada

Vada is a 5-year-old, 50 lb spayed female pittie mix with a beautiful grey and white coat and a magnetic personality. She's playful, affectionate, and full of life, bringing energy, joy, and nonstop tail wags wherever she goes. Vada is a social butterfly with other dogs, loving high-energy play and interacting with dogs of all sizes. She reads social cues well, making her a fun but respectful playmate. On leash, she's enthusiastic about meeting other dogs, eager to say hello! She absolutely adores kids, ranging from 4 to 18 years old, and loves being part of a family environment. Vada is a dream on leash, walking beautifully and being easy to handle. She is fully house-trained and great in her crate, using it as her space to relax and eat meals. Vada has no issues with resource guarding and has shown great manners around people and other dogs concerning food, toys, and treats. Her energy level is moderate; she loves to play but also knows how to settle. She is outgoing, curious, playful, smart, silly, and incredibly affectionate, loving her toys and cuddle time. Vada is people-oriented and truly a "Velcro dog" at heart. When meeting strangers, she's friendly and excited, though she may jump up due to her enthusiasm, so continued training on polite greetings will be beneficial. She rides well in the car and is always up for an adventure.

Ideal Home

Vada's ideal home is an active and engaged one that will include her in everyday life. She would do best with a family that can continue reinforcing good habits and provide her with both physical activity and affection.

Ongoing Health

Vada is spayed and up-to-date on vaccinations.

Vada may jump up when greeting people due to her excitement. Continued training around greetings will help her succeed.
