Shirley and her sister Laverne are going to do things their way to make their dreams come true. Leaving their jobs at the Milwaukee brewery, they have made their way to New England. They are determined and ready to take the next step out of their unknown past and right into the hearts of a family who will love and provide for them. Shirley is an 8-month-old labrador retriever mix weighing around 37 pounds. She is a growing girl, and it is estimated that she will be a large size gal of over 60 pounds when she is fully grown.
Shirley is hopeful and certain that she will find new friends just like she had with Lenny and Squiggy. Shirley is an outgoing girl and not shy about laying down at your feet for a belly rub. She adores making friends with other dogs and is good with children. When not hanging around the Pizza Bowl she can be found exploring the outdoors and being adventurous. She has not had the opportunity to meet a cat since coming into rescue so her take on a feline companion remains an unknown. She does have a medium energy level, and she would do well in a fairly active family that will allow her many opportunities to play, explore and hang out with her family and soak up attention.
Love is front and center when it comes to Shirley. Along with that is determination and she is not turning her back on learning her house, crate and leash training as all three are in progress. Learning the ropes is part of life for any house canine companion. Shirley will need her family to guide her along the way and help her to be a success that we know she will be.
Making the perfect match is what Shirley dreams of. She might not have her beloved Boo Boo Kitty, but she still has lots of love to give and share with her family.
The adoption fee for Shirley is $500. That includes the cost of spaying/neutering, up to date vaccinations, foster care, rescue, and transport fees.
