Velma Olivia de la Cruz


When we brought this chihuahua home from the dog shelter, she gasped when she saw the grass in the yard. After spending at least 40 days in a cement kennel, Velma, which means determined protector or warrior, is now one content little dog. 

As a four-year-old and a mother, Velma has been around the block a time or two. She set her boundaries right away when Maggie came to greet her, and the two have been pals ever since. Velma takes the lead, and Maggie the terrier follows happily, enchanted by her new companion. 


This dog loves exploring and has plenty of pep in her step. She's tiny but mighty and loves going for a walk. 


Her favorite thing to do, it seems, is to curl up on a lap to snooze. 


Ever hear of the cartoon characters, Asterix and Obelix? There is something about friendships between characters of such different sizes and personalities. Both dogs seem very happy with the arrangement, and both are young and energetic enough to join us on some great adventures.
