VELMA / FEMALE / DOB NOVEMBER 30, 2025

**Currently Living in Hamilton, ON**

Meet Velma, an outgoing and affectionate girl with a speckled forehead that makes her just as unique in looks as she is in personality. From the moment you meet her, she greets you like a long-lost best friend.

Velma loves to play and is always ready to be part of whatever is going on. She gets along well with other dogs and has a naturally social, easygoing way about her. She’s quick to pick things up and enjoys learning, especially when there’s a little encouragement involved, and has a lovely habit of following you from room to room, always wanting to be close.

Velma would suit a home where she can stay connected and involved throughout the day, as she naturally likes to be by your side. She brings a joyful, loyal presence and a warmth that quickly fills the space around her.

Velma has been:
• Spayed
• Vaccinated
• Dewormed
• Microchipped

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
