About Avery

Miss Avery is as cute as she is tiny. This little girl of only about a year old and about seven pounds is as sweet as can be. Avery came to us with six tiny puppies, her first and only litter. She has finished raising them and was one of the best mamas ever. Now that nearly all of them have moved on to new homes of their own it's her turn to be spoiled. Avery gets along great with nearly everyone and everything. She enjoys other respectful dog though large ones with a lot of energy can be a little daunting for her. Cats are fine too and she even spent part of the time she was raising her pups living with one that enjoyed her company. Respectful children are great by her too but because she's on the small side we are hoping for a home in which any children are at least five years old. If you are looking for a small bundle of fun and love then you need to meet Avery. Read on or go to the Adoption Process page of our website to learn how to apply. All potential adopters are expected to complete an application and provide pictures of their yard, patio, and/or balcony making sure we can see the fence line and/or railing. The application can be completed and submitted from our website - throwmeabonedogrescue.org - the link is found of the Adoption Process page. Applications will be reviewed for approval before setting an appointment to come meet and possibly adopt the dog of interest. In addition, those who live in a rental property are expected to provide proof that they are allowed to have a dog where they live. Each of our rescued dogs has been de-wormed if necessary, de-flea'd (with topical treatment if old enough, and by medicated bath if too young), spayed/neutered, microchipped, is up to date on shots, and has been fully examined by a veterinarian. In addition, each adopted dog comes with a starter baggie of the food it has been eating, a few treats for training purposes, a rawhide chew, a lead and collar, and a folder containing pertinent records.
