I am the perfect lap size!<br/><br/>WHAT DO YOU LOOK LIKE?<br/>I am a petite black and tan Frenchie.<br/><br/>WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO EAT?<br/>I like my kibble and my treats. I am learning to like some fruit, but I am a little cautious still.<br/><br/>WHAT KIND OF PERSONALITY DO YOU HAVE?<br/>I am a very sweet girl that loves all humans and just wants some cuddles.<br/><br/>DESCRIBE YOUR PERFECT DAY:<br/>My perfect day starts with a strut around the backyard to check out any new smells followed by some breakfast and some zoomies.<br/><br/>WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TOY?<br/>I love my Benebones and my ball!<br/><br/>DO YOU KNOW ANY TRICKS?<br/>I am pretty young, but I have learned how to sit and I am learning more and more every day!<br/><br/>WHAT SCARES YOU?<br/>I have not found anything that scares me.<br/><br/>HAVE YOU BEEN AROUND CHILDREN?<br/>I have. I am okay with little humans.<br/><br/>DO YOU LIKE CATS?<br/>My sister and I share our room with one. Cats are okay with me... as long as they figure out that I am the boss. I barked at our roommate cat for a couple days before the message got communicated. <br/><br/>HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT OTHER DOGS?<br/>I have a sister that I share my pen with, and I have met one of the other dogs in the house that I played well with.<br/><br/>IF YOU COULD BE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, WHERE WOULD IT BE?<br/>My favorite place is on the rug chewing on my Benebone or hanging out with my people!<br/><br/>HOW IS YOUR HEALTH?<br/>My health is great!<br/><br/>WHO DO YOU LIVE WITH IN YOUR FOSTER HOME AND WHO IS YOUR CLOSEST COMPANION?<br/>I live with my foster mom, grandma and a human foster brother, three resident dogs, one other foster dog, my sister (who is also looking for her forever home), and one resident cat.

I am doing very well with potty training.<br/><br/>DO YOU LIKE WATER?<br/>I am okay with baths, but I really do not love the water. When my foster mom waters the yard, I try to stay clear from the stream. And I should not be hanging out near large bodies of water because Frenchies are just not built for water activities. <br/><br/>WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT YOUR FOSTER FAMILY?<br/>I love all of the attention and scratches. My foster mom throws my ball for me and shows me lots of love!<br/><br/>IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE TO TELL YOUR FUTURE ADOPTER?<br/>I hope you are ready for a life of happy wiggles and cuddles, because I am full of them! Will you bring me into your family so we can spend lots of time together doing all the things a loving family does together? <br/><br/>**The adoption fee for Laverne is $1,000 (for: spay surgery, current vaccines, microchip, monthly flea/tick/heartworm prevention).<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting Laverne, please jump on our website and fill out an adoption application - www.norcalbullybreedrescue.org<br/><br/>For information on why our Bulldog fees are set as they are, please click on the following link:<br/>https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=5004742079644959&id=333019703483910&mibextid=qC1gEa<br/><br/>At this time, we are asking for adopters to be in the Sacramento and IMMEDIATE surrounding areas (which means Sacramento County, parts of El Dorado County and parts of Placer County).<br/><br/>For more information on what that means and why that is, please click on the following link:<br/>https://www.facebook.com/333019703483910/posts/3264412130344638/?extid=0&d=n<br/><br/>Thank you so much in advance!

NorCal Bully Breed Rescue's Adoption Policy
**We are currently only adopting out to the immediate Sacramento area which includes Sacramento County, parts of Placer County and parts of ElDorado County. We currently hold adoption events once a month at the Pet Food Express store in the Roseville Fountains. Please check our Facebook page for announcements! ADOPTION PROCESS: The first step in the adoption process is the completion of our online adoption application, which can be found on our website: www.norcalbullybreedrescue.org. **Your application will not be reviewed if you do not live with the immediate Sacramento area which is Sacramento County, parts of Placer County or some parts of Eldorado County) The second step is the home check. Our main priority in this step is insuring that your yard is 100% secure - there can be no loose boards or gaps in your fencing. If your dog is going to be spending anytime outside while you are at work or away from home, we ask that you have adequate shade or shelter from the elements. Before we schedule a home check, we may ask you to send us photos of your yard/fencing to get an idea of where the dog will be living. If you have any hesitation or questions about our yard check, please see our section on "How to Prepare for a Home Check." The last step in the adoption process is the meet and greet. This is where we meet with you and any existing pets to ensure proper introductions are made. We want to make sure everyone gets along. Once all introductions are made, and everyone gets along, your rescue dog is yours to adopt. Please note that there is no pressure involved, and if situation that cannot be resolved arises, we will always take our dog back. Also, be aware that there is an acclimation period for each dog and every dog is different. It can take a few days or a few weeks for your new dogs to settle in. We will assist in any way possible, including referring our trainer to come work with you and the dog. ADOPTION PREREQUISITES: All of our dogs are rescues, meaning they have already needed help in some way, and will only to to homes where they will live a "CHARMED LIFE." All of our adoptive dogs will be indoor dogs with outdoor privileges. We believe that dogs are family members, and should be allowed to sleep indoors. The only time they should be kept outdoors is if the weather permits. Any applications looking for an outdoor only dog will be denied. All current pets in your home need to be spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and one heartworm preventive. Out of area adoptions are within reason and on a case-by-case basis. HOW TO PREPARE FOR A HOME CHECK: Walk the perimeter of your yard. Take notes on the condition of your fence. Are there any loose boards or gaps under any sections of you fencing? If yes, these are easy fixes. You can nail any loose board back into place, and you can fill any gaps with pavers and gravel Do you have a lock on your gate? If not, please purchase one prior to your home check. Is there adequate shade or shelter for your new dog if it is going to be left outdoors while you're at work? Do you have anything hazardous in your yard, i.e. nails sticking out, chemicals left out, etc? Do you have a cat? If so, does your cat have a high spot it can retreat to if being chased? Are your garbage cans located somewhere near a gate where a dog can jump into them to get out? If so please move them. Please address these issues prior to our visit. ADOPTION FEES: All of our dogs will be spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped prior to being adopted. Our adoption fees are considered to be donations. All donations from adoption go right back into our rescue account, allowing us to continue to help dogs in need. At the bare minimum, the cost to properly vet a dog is $100. But some of the dogs we take on are medical cases, which can cost several thousand dollars. Because of this, we ask the following adoption fees: $500 for puppies, which are any dogs under a year old $300 for most adult dog aged 1 year or older. (French/English Bulldogs have significantly higher adoption fees which are explained on our website.)
