They are ready to love you; are you ready to apply? Ava is a delightful German Shepherd Dog with a bright personality and a zest for life. Weighing around 80 pounds (with some adorable extra floof), she's a medium-coated beauty who absolutely adores people above all else. House and crate trained, Ava is spayed, up to date on her vaccinations, microchipped, and heartworm negative, making her ready to settle into her new family with ease. If you're looking for a fun-loving companion, Ava will be thrilled to join you, as she's happiest when surrounded by her favorite humans. Ava can be excitable and a bit reactive around new dogs, but with proper introductions, she warms up and becomes playful. Because of this, her ideal family should be comfortable with canine body language and set up successful meet and greets. While Ava hasn't been tested with cats or children, she has shown herself to be outgoing and eager to bond. Her love of food gives her a playful, lighthearted charm, and her Leo sun sign means she's a natural at being loyal and taking center stage. After an extended stay in rescue, Ava's adoption fee has been reduced by $100, giving you even more reason to bring this loving girl home. Make their next chapter their best one yet.
