About Verne

Meet Verne, a sweet young boy who is ready for his forever home. Verne, along with his siblings Victoria and Vivian, was found abandoned at a Walmart in Central Texas. They spent days at the garden center, becoming hesitant after the overwhelming attention from people wanting to help them. Thankfully, they were rescued and have blossomed into playful and affectionate pups after some time and patience in foster care. Verne looks like a mix between a Golden Retriever and Great Pyrenees, and his calm demeanor makes him a great addition to any family. He loves both dogs and cats and is also great with kids. While he will need a little leash training, he is eager to learn. As he grows, we estimate that he will reach about 80 lbs. Come meet this adorable boy and see if he's the perfect companion for you. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
