Story
Avery is a fabulous young pup with a heart full of love. She adores playing with other dogs and truly comes alive when she’s with her furry friends. With people, she’s a little more reserved—especially around strangers and men with deep voices—but with time, patience, and gentle care, Avery blossoms into the sweetest, most loyal companion. Once she trusts you, she’s all in, and she is so worth the wait.
Her Story:
Back in October 2024, we learned about a very skinny, injured dog who was struggling to survive. A kind neighbor had been feeding her, and we were able to safely bring her in. It was clear Avery had been through something terrible—she had most likely been hit by a car weeks before, and both of her hips were shattered. Somehow, she survived alone in the woods, trying to heal while starving.
An orthopedic surgeon evaluated her and decided that, since she was already healing on her own and walking, the safest course was to let her body continue recovering naturally rather than risk a dangerous reconstructive surgery. So Avery was put on medication and strict bed rest for months—hard for a pup who just wanted to play!
Today, Avery runs, plays, and acts like nothing ever happened. She has a quirky little run, and while she’ll always need joint supplements and may face arthritis as she ages, she doesn’t let anything slow her down. She’s one tough, lucky little survivor.
What Avery Needs:
✨ A patient adopter or foster who will give her time to feel safe and loved
✨ A soft bed and cozy space to call her own
✨ Lots of love, reassurance, and gentle encouragement
✨ Another friendly dog would be a bonus!
Avery is truly special. She’s been through so much, yet her spirit shines bright. Now all she needs is a family who will see how amazing she is and give her the happily-ever-after she deserves.
