Jet is cleared for takeoff! At just 2.5 years old, our sleek and aerodynamic Jet is finally ready to fly... and trust us, this pup is built for altitude! Jet’s journey hasn’t been smooth skies. He was seized at just 6 months old in a cruelty case, and spent the next two years grounded in a shelter while the legal system slowly turned its gears. But justice finally landed - his former “owner” lost custody, and Jet was transferred to our care. Now, he’s taxiing down the runway of life, engines revving, heart wide open, and eyes on the clouds. Jet is making up for lost time. He’s got energy to burn and some learning to do, but the foundation is solid gold. Jet: - Loves people. - Is sweet, trusting, and affectionate (gives very thorough kisses!). - Is eager to please his people. - Is working hard with an awesome trainer to learn how to manage all that rocket-fueled enthusiasm. Watching him train makes your heart defy gravity. It’s clear he wants to learn, wants to connect, and he’s giving it his all, every single day. What Jet needs now is a co-pilot - someone who believes in second chances, who sees the potential in a heart that never stopped hoping. Someone who will guide him through turbulence and celebrate every mile he flies. Jet’s not just ready for takeoff. He’s ready to soar. Are you the one to help him reach cruising altitude? Come find out at Animal Aid Society, 80 Butler Farm Road, Hampton, VA. Flight hours are 9am to noon, daily, including weekends & holidays. Interested? Come for a visit any day of the week - 365 days a year between 9am - 12pm. Hope to see you soon!
PLEASE NOTE: Animal Aid Society observes a 40 mile adoption radius to facilitate post adoption support and follow ups.

We estimate the pre-adoption process can take up to 14 days or longer.
Please note: AAS is committed to finding the best fit for each of our dogs. For this reason, we will accept multiple applications for a dog. In the case of multiple applications, we will select the applicant that is the best fit based on the needs of the dog.
Adoption fee for puppy/adult dogs is $300.00.
Adoption fee for senior dogs is $150.00.
