About Vera:
Vera is one happy-go-lucky young pup with a loving heart; she is friendly to humans of all ages, dogs and cats. She is mellow, super intelligent, and sweet-tempered. She enjoys keeping her humans company; loves to cuddle and gives kisses. She is an absolute sweet girl; anyone can pet her, even a stranger. She is well behaved: no excessive barking, stays calm and sleeps overnight in her crate; she’s also an excellent walking companion. Having been through a miserable past, she never lost her trust in humans and she still holds a positive attitude toward her future. Vera certainly deserves to have a wonderful home!

Vera’s rescue story:
The first encounter of Vera with the volunteer was in last June, near a suburban orchard. When Vera approached her for food, she sensed that Vera was still nursing at that time, but no pups was found through searching the neighborhood. Two months later, about the end of her nursing period, Vera was taken back by the rescuer.
Since no chip was found on her, we figured that she must have been deserted as a pup, and has been kept alive by the occasional feedings from the neighboring construction workers.
Vera is now under the care of a foster family. She went through a through physical and neuter job was performed. She’s looking forward to start a new life with a caring family!
