My story

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


Vera is an affectionate and well-behaved dog who has quickly become a cherished member of her foster home. She loves to play and cuddle with her family and is always eager for attention. Though she's a strong walker, Vera has been making great progress in her leash skills. She's highly food-motivated and excited to learn new tricks. Vera adores meeting new people and never hesitates to ask for pets and belly rubs, making her a lovable and friendly companion.

Hear what Vera's fosters have to say about her!
"Vera’s doing great! She’s gained some healthy weight and is having a blast in our cozy apartment. She’s been on a few long drives to my parents’ place, and she’s totally smitten with their bigger home and yard. She’d love a yard where she can run and play to her heart’s content and a home where there are multiple people she can show love and affection to. She’s loves to cuddle, but she’s also got good boundaries. If you ask her to stay in her bed, she’ll respect your space. She’s super food-motivated, so treats are a must for working on her walking, good behavior, and tricks. She’s a pro at crating, and she sleeps like a baby through the night."
