Meet Avalon!

Breed: Lab/Husky Mix Estimated DOB: 06/01/2025 Sex: Female (spayed) Weight: 35-40 lbs Currently up to date on all age appropriate vaccinations

Last summer, we welcomed a litter of puppies we called the "Jersey Shore pups" after they were dumped at an elementary school. But one sweet girl had to stay behind… and that was Avalon. She had been stepped on or hit by a car as a young puppy, which left her left rear limb non-functional and severely deformed - it was fixed in full flexion and couldn't be moved or used to touch the ground. After months of medical care and physical therapy in Mississippi to build her strength, amputation of her left rear limb was the best solution to give her the best quality of life. Now officially a tripawd, Avalon adjusted beautifully to her three-legged life and absolutely rocks! TLC has stood by her every step of the way, covering all her medical care and waiting for the day she was strong enough to travel north - and that day is finally here! She's the last of the Jersey Shore pups looking for her forever home.

Things To Know about Avalon:


Happy, goofy, full-of-life puppy who hasn't let anything dim her spirit and settled right into her foster home - her foster says she's been the easiest foster they've had and everyone who meets her remarks how sweet, chill, and loving she is!
"The most dog" dog you'll ever meet - classic, happy to see you, tail wagging, ball chasing kind of girl
Gets excited to go on her leash and explore outside but is just as excited to crash into your lap on the couch or play with a toy
Does great on daily walks
HUGE cuddle bug who wants to be as close to you as possible and loves joining you on the couch - will push herself onto your lap or under your arm when she feels left out
Loves toys - chewing on bones, tossing around soft toys and tennis balls, and snoozing on dog beds
Does well with a puzzle feeder at mealtimes to help her slow down
Goofy girl who sometimes likes to find her own cozy hideaway spot behind her crate or under furniture
Absolutely loves playtime, especially fetch, and gets the most impressive zoomies you've ever seen - nothing stops this tripawd girl!
Still able to navigate stairs, play outside, and keep up with her pack like a champ
LOVES playing in a fenced yard and would thrive in a home where she has space to run and explore
LOVES puppies - has adored the foster puppies in her home and spends lots of time playing and snuggling with them
Working on crate training
Currently working on housetraining and will require continued, consistent housetraining habits to establish a good routine
Dog friendly
Cat friendly - has met the foster cat multiple times and has zero interest, just a quick sniff and she moves on (though she will get into the litter box if given access)
High prey drive toward small outdoor animals like squirrels and bunnies, so not recommended for homes with free-roaming rabbits, ferrets, or similar small pets
Looking for a loving and committed forever home to provide her with the care and love she deserves
