About Laverne

Laverne has that sweet Cavapoo spirit, but she’s a breeder release who’s still learning the world beyond kennel walls. She needs an experienced, dog-savvy family committed to meeting her where she is, giving her time and space to build trust. Initially timid, Laverne shows flashes of confidence and even boldness once she feels safe—she just needs patient people willing to let her decompress on her own schedule. She’ll gravitate to a gentle, friendly home and will do best with a securely fenced yard since she doesn’t understand leash walks yet. Classic for her breed, Laverne wants to be close to people—she wags, she retreats, she clearly wants to bond but needs reassurance. She’ll thrive with structure, kindness, and especially an adopter who won’t have expectations about how fast or how much she’ll change. Give her time, and she’ll likely show you more and more of her joyful spirit. Laverne is fully vetted, spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. Since little dogs like her can live well into their late teens or longer, she’s hoping for a family ready to make a long-term commitment. She is not suitable for homes with cats. If you’re in the Chicago metro area, have a secure yard, understand the unique needs of breeder releases, and can offer loads of patience and love, Laverne could be the companion you’re looking for.
