laverne

Laverne is a sweet cavapoo looking for an experienced patient family that speaks 'dog'. Laverne is a breeder release from a commercial facility. She hasn't had the benefit a dog her age might have who was born in a home. That being said, while she is initially scared and timid, once she feels safe she is longing to bond with a family. She will likely always be a touch timid but she’s far more confident than most breeder releases. She’s actually a very spirited gal. . She needs family who will help her slowly decompress and adjust in her own time. Laverne is a friendly gentle gal. She needs a fenced in yard for her potty place. She doesn't understand leash walking.

Cavapoos tend to be Velcro dogs. They want to be close to a human, Laverne is friendly, wags her tail and then retreats, She wants to be cared for, She needs to relax enough to know she can move forward without fear, She needs a patient adopter without expectations she will change but will give her the time to allow her to if she chooses,

Like all dogs, she will need structure and a patient, loving home. We recommend training for all dogs, not only to give Laverne important learning skills, but because you and your dog will create a stronger bond just by going through the training together.

Laverne is fully vetted. She has been spayed, received age-appropriate vaccines, and is microchipped. Subsequent vaccines will be at the expense of her adopter. Her adoption fee is $600..00. She is on the hunt for her own completely committed family. Little dogs can live to be 20+ years old, so Laverne wants to be sure her family is all in for better or for worse!

IF INTERESTED IN A PUPPY (UNDER 12 MONTHS): You must have a flexible work schedule or someone home all day. Puppies need to be let out to potty often. They need socialization, bonding, and training (housetraining and behavioral training). If you work long hours, have a busy social schedule, or are not financially secure, then a puppy is not for you.
