Weight: 56 lbs of pure mischief
Age: Almost 2 years old (still a toddler in dog years)
Status: Neutered and up to date on vaccinations (and definitely not a fan of the cone of shame)
Breed: Mixed breeds-think of him as a surprise party in dog form!
**Adventurous Spirit**
Adventurous should be his middle name! Vernon loves being outdoors, and he absolutely adores car rides. Whether it's a quick trip to the park or a longer journey, he's the kind of dog who can't wait to jump in the car and feel the wind in his fur.
**Loyal Guardian**
While Vernon is a loyal and playful companion, he's also got a protective side. He wants to guard you and your belongings like a knight in furry armor. Whether it's keeping an eye on your snacks or ensuring no one gets too close to his favorite human, Vernon takes his guarding duties seriously. Just know that if you haven't shared your pizza, you might have to negotiate with him first!
**Extremely Handsome**
Let's not forget to mention how extremely handsome Vernon is. With his charming looks and irresistible puppy-dog eyes, he's bound to turn heads wherever you go. He knows he's got the looks, and he's not afraid to flaunt them-posing like a model whenever a camera is nearby!
**Well-Trained and Smart**
Vernon is a smart dog who knows how to sit like a pro and has great recall skills. He'll come running back to you when called, making outdoor adventures even more enjoyable. He is calm and composed, and he doesn't jump, making him a great companion for families with children. He knows how to interact gently, ensuring everyone feels safe and happy.
**Experience Required**
Vernon is looking for an experienced owner who can appreciate his intelligence and understand his quirks. He's well-suited for a home with kids, as long as they know how to respect his space and interact with him properly.
**Street Dog Background**
Coming from a street dog background, Vernon has a few quirky street dog tendencies. He may take some time to adjust, but with love and trust, you'll find that he's more than just a former street dog-he's a professional couch potato-in-training. Just be patient; he might still think the trash can is his buffet!
**Power Chewer**
Vernon is a power chewer, so a heavy-duty kennel will be provided for his forever home, as he shouldn't be left free-roaming unattended. Seriously, if you value your furniture, make sure he has his own space! His playful nature and spirited personality will keep you entertained, and he'll reward your patience with a bond that's truly special-like having a furry sidekick who always thinks it's time for play!
**Not a Fan of Cats**
While Vernon loves car rides and being around people, he's not fond of cats. It's best to keep him in a cat-free environment where he can feel comfortable and secure.
**Ready for Adventure**
Vernon is a remarkable best friend waiting for the right person to share adventures with. If you're looking for a loyal companion who's ready to explore the world by your side (and maybe steal your snacks), Vernon is the dog for you!
