Introducing, VERN!
Vern is your textbook Labrador: goofy, friendly, affectionate, and full of personality. With his handsome, oversized head and goofy grin, he’s hard to miss — and even harder not to love! Vern is happiest when he’s with his people, whether that’s joining you for a walk, lounging around home, or showing off his signature “lean in for pets” move.
He can be strong on leash, but he is always up for an adventure — from neighborhood strolls to exploring a forest trail. When he’s running around the backyard, Vern’s recall is impressive; he’ll come bounding back with that classic lab enthusiasm, and of course looking for his treat.
Like most dogs, Vern has a mischievous side too. When he’s bored or feels like he’s not getting the attention he clearly deserves, he’ll let you know with some barking — and if that doesn’t work, he might go on a little counter-surfing mission to see what treasures he can find! He’s looking for a family who can keep up his training, provide plenty of mental and physical exercise, and help him learn that he doesn’t always get to call the shots.
Vern enjoys the company of other dogs but can be a bit intense in play, so he’ll need a good match if sharing a home with a canine buddy. He’d also be perfectly happy as your one-and-only, soaking up all the love and attention.
If you’re looking for a loyal, fun-loving companion who’ll keep you laughing and your heart full, Vern’s the guy for you.
