Your Pet's Story or Bio
My name is Avalon, but I was known as "Lil Love" during her time at AWLA! I just turned 1 and I LOVE to play and explore! I'm named after mom and dad's favorite vacation spot on Catalina Island and I remind them that every day with me is like another day in paradise! My mom first met me when I came to her work to get spayed and she knew I would come home with her. Now I come to work with her everyday! Since I was adopted in February, I've been to countless dog parks and adventures in D.C., went to a Nationals game, and even took a trip to N.C.! When I'm not exploring, my next favorite activity is cuddling in my mom's arms. I've been through a lot in my 1st year, but now I'm happy to have a warm and loving home.
