Meet Velma!

This low-riding potato — and yes, she truly is one, as she can stand to lose a few pounds — came to us from our friends at Boston Animal Control after being found as a stray. She is currently in treatment for heartworm disease, so she is not quite ready for adoption just yet. But she is too special not to share with the world now.

If you’re looking for a lovable little sidekick with snuggle energy, this sweet girl is your match. She is friendly, snuggly, mellow, and full of charm — the kind of dog who wants to be wherever her person is, preferably pressed right up against them like a tiny couch ornament.

She loves the simple things in life: cozy naps, gentle walks, a little park time, and plenty of cuddle time. She’s calm in the car, easy on leash, and has a wonderfully easygoing personality. At home, she’s happiest curled up close, soaking up love and keeping you company like the best little shadow around.

Her favorite things include her stuffed bear, marrow bones, crinkly toys, and tasty treats like cheese. She’s playful in the cutest way with happy little play bows, and her adorable grunts and snoring make her even more lovable — truly a whole personality in one tiny potato body.
