Avril's Story

Meet Avril – Your Loyal, Playful Companion!<br/><br/>If you're looking for a fun, energetic jogging partner, Avril is your girl! This 9-year-old German Shepherd mix is full of personality and will brighten your days with her playful spirit and love for engagement.<br/><br/>Avril is housebroken, crate-trained, and well-mannered at home. She currently lives with two other dogs, sharing her toys and food without any guarding issues. She's always ready for a game or some attention and has a big personality! Avril might even “tell you stories” with her expressive nature, adding some extra fun to your life.<br/><br/>When it comes to walks, Avril does best with a halti, she is reactive to other dogs on leash. With proper handling, she recovers quickly and moves on, making her an excellent jogging buddy. In fact, she is less reactive when jogging, which makes her a perfect companion for active individuals or families.<br/><br/>Since Avril has a strong prey drive and no reliable recall, off-leash time isn’t an option, but she’ll thrive in a home with a secure, fenced-in yard where she can safely play. While she’s great with her current dog pack at home, her interactions with other dogs when outside the house and small animals need to be managed carefully.<br/><br/>PAWS will provide support and training to help with her leash reactivity. Avril will make a wonderful addition to a family that can manage her high energy and prey drive. <br/><br/>If you’d like to meet this special girl.

Providing Animals With Safety for Life Foundation's Adoption Policy
So... you think you have what it takes to adopt?  Getting a puppy or a new dog is an exciting moment in a person's life. Dogs truly become part of our family, which is why here at PAWS, we are dedicated to helping pets stay in their forever homes through our application vetting process. We carefully review each application in search of the best match for every dog that comes into our care. Let's talk commitment! Getting a dog means giving them unconditional love and fulfilling all of their needs for the rest of their lives.  The basics include love, food, water and shelter - but there is so much more! Be sure you have plans for things like: what will you do with your pet when you go on vacation?, are you able to afford veterinary costs?, and are you willing to take your new dog in for force-free training? If you're ready, we'd love to hear from you! Fill out an application today!
