Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Applicant Name: Dallas
Position Sought: Best Friend / Adventure Partner / Professional Snuggle Consultant
Professional Skills & Experience:
• High-energy athlete with extensive experience in fetch, rope toy negotiations, and competitive zoomies
• Team-oriented social butterfly who thrives alongside other playful, high-energy dogs
• Star performer in agility training and playtime classes
• Excellent focus during walks, especially when monitoring local squirrel activity
Personality Highlights:
• Confident, goofy, and purpose-driven (particularly outdoors)
• Exceptionally affectionate—once I lie down, I locate the nearest human or dog and initiate snuggle mode
Interests & Motivations:
• Tennis balls (primary love language)
• Long walks and active lifestyles
• Homes with a playful dog companion (cats need not apply—I admire them too much)
Off-the-Clock Strengths:
When the workday ends, I transition into a calm, cuddly companion who keeps laps warm and hearts full
Conclusion:
If you’re seeking a smart, fun-loving, energetic sidekick to keep you active, laughing, and thoroughly loved every day, I believe I’m uniquely qualified for the position. I look forward to meeting you and starting our lifelong partnership.
Adopters have 30 days of free access to 1-on-1 text and email support from trainers at Petcademy to help make every pet's transition into their new home as smooth as possible. All dogs available for adoption have been spayed/neutered, microchipped and are current on all vaccinations. Please email dogs@henricohumane.org for more information.

Potential adopters are carefully screened to ensure we find the right forever home for the dogs and cats we rescue. Since animals live in foster homes, we get to know their personality and temperament. The adoption process allows us to learn about you, so that we can help find the perfect match for your home.
ADOPTION PROCESS
After finding a cat or dog that you are interested in, you'll need to complete an adoption application either online (https://henricohumane.org) or at an adoption stand. An adoption coordinator will review your application to ensure your situation matches the needs of the animal you're interested in. If completing an application online, please note, every question must be answered on the application for it to be reviewed by an adoption coordinator. As part of the review process, we'll request references. Because we are an all-volunteer organization, it may take up to 48 hours for an adoption coordinator to contact you.
ADOPTION FEES:
All of our adoption fee amounts can be found here:
https://www.henricohumane.org/adopt
The adoption fee covers the cost of shots, spay/neuter, microchipping and worm/flea treatments.

More about this rescue
Henrico Humane Society is an all-volunteer, foster-based,
non-profit organization that rescues dogs and cats from
across Central Virginia and places them in loving, forever
homes.
HHS has saved hundreds of animals each year since
1991. Many of the dogs and cats we rescue come from
shelters in rural areas where they have fewer adoption
opportunities. The majority of the animals in our care live
with foster parents until they find a permanent home.
We don't have a shelter and most of our animals live in foster homes until they're adopted, which allows us to get to know their personality and temperament. Applicants are carefully screened to ensure we find the right forever home for the dogs and cats we rescue. Our adoption process allows us to learn about potential adopters so we can help find the perfect matcher their home.
