About Lavender

Meet Lavender! This energetic young dog is a 9.5-month-old mix of German Shepherd and American Staffordshire Terrier, and she's still growing. We know her mom was a 60-pound German Shepherd and dad was a 70-pound Staffordshire Terrier, so expect her to be a sizable companion. Lavender gets along well with other dogs and children, making her a great family pet. Although she's yet to interact with cats, her friendly nature suggests she could likely adapt. This lovely girl is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccinations. She's also heartworm and Lyme negative, plus she’s on monthly prevention. Good news: her adoption fee, normally $100, is waived until October 31! If you're interested in bringing Lavender into your life, just submit an application to meet her. We also offer a two-week foster-to-adopt trial to ensure she's the perfect fit for your home. Don't miss out on this wonderful opportunity! Ready to give Lavender the loving home she deserves?
