They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now! Meet Ava, a vibrant 2-year-old dynamo who’s sure to win hearts wherever she goes! Weighing in around 43 pounds, Ava is not just your average ball of energy—she's a true social butterfly, beloved at both the dog park and daycare. Whether it's fetch or tug-of-war, this girl jumps right into the fun and proves herself as a fierce competitor every time! Ava is seeking an active family with a zest for adventure. She’s happiest joining in on splashes, lakeside play, or hiking up mountains, and she just thrives when there’s another young dog in the house to share in her playful zoomies. Just picture Ava racing joyfully around a securely fenced yard—though do note, she can leap a 4-foot fence with ease, so extra security is a must! She’s got an impressively keen recall and tends to stick close if ever she finds herself wandering. Fully house trained and relaxed when left to roam the home (as long as snacks are tucked away), Ava is less keen on crates but overall makes a wonderful companion. Ava gets along well with children but, due to her excitable zoomies, she’s best suited for families with kids aged 12 and up. When meeting new adults, she may start off a bit shy—particularly around men—but with a little patience, her sweet and affectionate nature quickly shines through. Ready for a loyal, enthusiastic companion to join your adventures? Ava is prepared to fill your days with joy and play. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
