Dog Saved With 'Minutes To Spare' Needs NJ Home

MORRIS COUNTY, NJ — Violet Beauregarde Lonestar was almost at the end of the line, minutes from being euthanized in a Texas Animal Shelter when she was rescued. Now, Eleventh Hour Rescue wants to find her a new home here in New Jersey.

Violet is a high energy 1-year-old Boxer mix. "Violet is very energetic and would benefit from an active owner who can provide her the exercise she needs. She does get along with similar size dogs, and is good with cats too," the rescue says.

Violet enjoys car rides and cuddling and does well on a leash, but can get over excited at times. She will do best with a family with experience training dogs, although she is crate trained and housebroken.
