Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Blitzen ... AKA Blitz ... Blitzy ... Blitzen was rescued in a group of 14 puppies. He was adopted into a loving home but sadly, was returned through no fault of his own. A family member is allergic to his dander, so the heartbreaking decision was made to find him a new home. Blitzen is a very sweet confused boy. He needs someone to take time to show him everything is going to be okay and that he is loved.
Blitzen is house trained, seems to ride well in a car, but not so sure he wants to get in. He lived in a home with 2 children, walks well on a leash, but when he gets excited, (squirrel, other dog) he will pull. He is still a puppy, a big puppy. Blitzen still needs training with a firm but loving hand. I was his foster before he was adopted, he was such a gentle sweet boy and he still is.
Blitzen is up to date on all his medical, microchipped, neutered and heartworm negative. All he needs now is a home. For information please call BHS at 540-586-6100, or go to https//www.bhsva.org/adoptables to fill out an adoption application.

Have you discovered a pet you wish to adopt? Great!
Now, the first step is to complete an adoption application on our website at http://bhsva.org/adoptions-home.htm. This is not a commitment to adopt. It is simply the first step in the process.
We will review your application for preliminary approval before asking the foster parent to contact you to set up a time to meet the pet. You may also have concerns about how the animal will fit your home environment. When the foster parent contacts you, you will be able to discuss your concerns with someone who has first-hand experience with the pet.
After you meet the animal, you and the foster parent can decide if this is definitely the forever pet for you.
