We encourage you to ask any and all questions you may have – whether it’s about spaying/neutering, house training techniques, effective obedience training methods, parasite prevention, or any other topic relevant to your pet’s care and well-being.

Verona Street Animal Society’s Approach to Breed Identification
Verona Street Animal Society believes in focusing on the individual animal, recognizing that visual breed identification, particularly in dogs, is often unreliable. Mislabeling breeds can lead to significant misconceptions and unfair judgments. Therefore, Verona Street Animal Society prioritizes understanding each animal’s unique personality and behavior over relying on potentially inaccurate breed labels.
Unless we receive verifiable documentation from a previous owner, such as pedigree records from a reputable breeder or DNA testing results, Verona Street Animal Society refrains from using breed labels on adoption profiles, kennel cards, or any official animal documentation. Our focus is on getting to know each dog, cat, and other pet as an individual, allowing us to provide the most accurate and helpful descriptions based on their personality and temperament, not on guesswork about their breed composition. This approach ensures that potential adopters can connect with animals based on compatibility and individual traits, rather than preconceived notions associated with breed stereotypes at Verona Street Animal Society.
