My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


Introducing Laverne, a gentle soul with a heart of gold, though initially shy and fearful, she blossoms into a loyal companion with patience and understanding. Laverne takes her time to warm up to new faces, but once she trusts you, she showers you with affection and enjoys nothing more than gentle pets and cuddles. While she may be cautious around other dogs and animals due to her fear, Laverne is a perfect companion on leash, walking with grace and ease. With her low energy demeanor, she's content to lounge by your side and bask in your companionship, making her the ideal furry friend for a tranquil and loving home.
