Velma
What’s Velma’s favorite time of year? Why, fall of course! And she’d be happy to count the reasons.
- Sweater season: It can get a bit chilly being a small dog with a short coat, but in the fall, Velma can show off a wide range of fashion, from spooky sweaters to fun fleeces, pastels, prints and everything in between. If you’re into haute couture, then she’s the pint-sized icon for you!
- Perfect walk weather: When Velma wakes up in the morning, she is ready to go go go, and the temperature on fall mornings are great for walks. While she has a condition called medially luxating patellas, causing her kneecaps to shift in her back legs, she doesn’t let it show her down when it’s time to exercise or play.
- Halloween: What is Velma looking for this Halloween? Her own Scooby gang, to solve mysteries and just generally enjoy the spooky season. In fact, Velma’s getting a head start on Halloween with the AWLA’s Howl-O-Ween, taking place tomorrow, Oct. 26, from 2 to 4 p.m. at Riverside Taco Company. Stop by to meet Velma (unless she’s adopted first) or come by with your own costumed canine -- you can pre-register online or register in person on Saturday.
So if you’re looking for a furry friend with whom to enjoy some autumn adventures, look no further than Velma, the adorable adoptable who’s all pumpkin spice and everything nice!
