If you see pets listed by a private owner, it means that they’re adoptable through Adopt a Pet’s Rehome program – the safe and reliable way to find a loving new home for your pet.
Our little family fell in love with Nancy Pretzel about a year ago at the Henrico Police department annual adopt a pet event. We spent 3 hours with her not wanting to leave and we still love her today. We were told that she was found by her owners feet as he had passed away. She is LOYAL! At the time she was covered in fleas and was bald on most of her backside. She was very timid and would only come out of the cage for one volunteer the 18 days in the shelter. She came right to our family and we fell in love. Over time she has made huge strides, growing back her hair, learning to take walks and even coming up the stairs. She is energetic and loves a good walk/run. She will go anywhere with you. She loves riding in the car but is still a bit too timid to put her face in the wind. She is very chill throughout the day. She loves to play fetch and tug a war! She is great with girls but young energetic boys are not her thing.
