🌟🐾 Meet Vernon 🌟🐾

This gentle soul is about 10 years old, weighs 8.6 lbs, and is still available for adoption. His adoption fee is $300 (but we can be flexible). 💛

Vernon came to us from another shelter as a stray, and sadly no one ever came to reclaim him. Despite that, he has quickly stolen our hearts here -- becoming a staff favorite almost instantly with his sweet smile and the way he's such a joy to handle. 🥰

He gets along beautifully with other dogs, keeps his kennel clean, and radiates kindness wherever he goes. Vernon may be a senior, but he's proof that age only adds wisdom and charm. He's ready to spend his golden years being cherished by a family who will love him as much as we do. 🐶💖

Because we don't observe our animals in home settings, we aren't able to guarantee whether he is housebroken.

Upon intake, every animal receives:

Spay/neuter surgery

Microchip

All age‐appropriate vaccinations

Blood and fecal testing (with treatment if needed)

Flea, tick, and heartworm prevention

A complimentary wellness exam 7-10 days after adoption

Adopters must be at least 21 years old and live within an hour of our facility.

Vernon is waiting for someone who will see the sparkle in his smile and give him the loving forever home he deserves. Could that be you? ✨🐾
