That’s just who she is.<br/><br/>Laverne is about 1.5 years old, 40 lbs of love and loyalty, and ready for her forever family. She’s affectionate, gentle, and great with kids, dogs, and pretty much everyone she meets. She’s crate trained, housetrained, and is learning to walk confidently on a leash.<br/><br/>She lives for playtime outside, especially if there’s water involved — she’s a total splash queen! <br/><br/>Laverne's Story:<br/>She and her sister were found abandoned on the streets as puppies. Friends Fur Life Rescue stepped in and placed them in a caring foster home. Her sister was adopted quickly… but somehow, Laverne keeps getting overlooked.<br/><br/>We don’t know why. She’s a total gem.<br/><br/>If you’ve been thinking of adding a loyal, loving companion to your life — this is your sign. Laverne is waiting. She’s been waiting. And she deserves a happy ending.<br/><br/>- Great with dogs<br/>- Kid-friendly<br/>- Housetrained and crate trained<br/>- Fully vetted and ready to travel<br/>- Adoption available in the U.S. and Canada<br/><br/>Interested?<br/>We’ll happily set up a call and video chat so you can meet this sweet girl.
