About Goose fka Lenny

Goose, formerly known as Lenny, is a charming Chocolate Lab who has made remarkable progress during his time with us at VERGI. He's been facing some medical challenges, but he’s now on track for discharge and ready for a fresh start. True to his breed, Goose radiates happiness and affection, embodying the lovable and goofy spirit of a typical Lab. It’s hard to believe this wonderful dog went unnoticed for so long in the shelter, but thanks to the quick action taken for his care, he’s ready to head into a foster home. Goose is not only ready to be loved and pampered, but he’s also dog-friendly and gets along well with children. Fostering Goose means you provide a loving environment while we cover all medical expenses and assist with any vet transport. We’re eager to find Goose a foster home in the next couple of days. Consider opening your heart and home to this sweet boy. Let’s give him the love he deserves! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
