#Violet is ready to embrace the weekend. #DogsOfMastodon

Timeline cleanse. #Violet #DogsOfMastodon

The vet sent #Violet a bravery certificate. #DogsOfMastodon

Vet: #Violet did great in her dental procedure. We extracted one tooth but she got to keep the canine. You'll want to restrict her movement for the next day or so...

Violet: PARKOUR!

#Violet is a throw pillow of a dog. #DogsOfMastodon

#Violet does a cosy. #DogsOfMastodon

#Violet: "Got any beef?" #DogsOfMastodon

#Violet is ready for basking season. #DogsOfMastodon

I'm not sure why #Violet is so mad at the squirrels when they provide the valuable service of burying free peanuts in her back yard. #DogsOfMastodon

Can you spot #Violet? #DogsOfMastodon #camouflage

#Violet made it through her week at school. Most impressively, today she didn't bark (or, frankly, even notice) when she met someone who was holding a live rat.

#Violet gets to go to school today and all next week! She's not interested the pets everyone will want to give her, but she will accept their treats. "I'd better be #$%@ spherical by the end of this!" #DogsOfMastodon

#Violet asks to go outside. #DogsOfMastodon #WaitForIt
