My story

Meet our Extra special and the best boy ever, Mr. Josie! Josie was surrendered to us after his owner passed and sadly he could not get along with the male dog in the house that took him in.
Josie has been through a lot but he has the biggest heart and the best smile!!!!! Josie is around 6 years old, housebroken ( just remember he will need to learn the potty schedule in a new home) and extra special because he is a Tripod and a very handsome one at that. Josie will be getting all his vaccines updated with our vet this Tuesday and this big boy will be on the hunt for a forever home!!!!!
Josie was previously Neutered. We have brought him current on all Vaccines,Microchipped him, Heartworm tested and monthly preventatives started.

More about this shelter

The Orange County Animal Shelter is responsible for providing humane care to unwanted, lost or abandoned animals
The Orange County Animal Shelter provides safe haven and vet care for hundreds of animals of all ages and descriptions each year.
Happily, we have had great success promoting our animals on Petfinder, Petsmart adoption events and now with the help of Adopt-A-Pet. Dozens of animals have been adopted by people who have come from many other states. Would you like to join them? If so, please let us know! The greater our reach the more homes we will find for the animals in our care.
Although we are about 1.5 hours away from the Washington, D.C. metro area, it is an easy drive. You can even make a day of it and stop off at country stores, Civil War battlefield sites and a huge mall complex in Spotsylvania/Fredericksburg. And after all, what is a few hours in drive time when you will be meeting your new best friend? If you need help getting here, call us for directions
