Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Avery is a sweet, friendly little YorkiePoo/Maltese mix ("Morkie") who's between 4-5 years old and weighs 11 pounds. Poor Avery ended up at South LA shelter and came in with a horrible bacterial/yeast skin infection. He had hair missing, his skin was inflamed, and he smelled terrible! When the shelter put out a plea and showed his pic, my heart broke.
We picked him up and got him to a dermatologist and he was put on a regimen of meds and baths. One month later and he's a new dog!!! His hair is growing in quickly and no more meds! Through all of his adversity, Avery maintained a STELLAR personality and has been nothing but sweet and affectionate to everyone.
Avery loves to cuddle and is very well behaved. He's good on a leash and gets along great with other dogs. He's also good with kids and greets strangers with a wagging tail and welcoming eyes. Avery started off as a diamond-in-the-rough and now he shines brilliantly.
If you are interested in meeting and possibly adopting Avery, the first step is to submit an adoption application. Please go to our website www.k9bestfriendsforever.com and click on "Adopt" which will take you to our online application form.
