My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Pumpkin the bouncy, 50-pound dog is so sweet you`d almost think she was a pie! She is just under a year old and still in her puppy stage. Pumpkin can be a little nervous at first when meeting new people, so a slow approach is much more her speed! She will need some help working on her leash manners and training, just like any young dog. Pumpkin loves toys and is excited to play! We recommend bringing your dog to the shelter to meet Pumpkin prior to taking her home, to make sure she is a good fit for your pack. This lovely lady is people-oriented and oh so sweet. Come meet and adopt Pumpkin, today!

This pet is eligible for an Adoption Audition! What is an Adoption Audition? It’s a 5-day, no-strings-attached, trial adoption period. You can take this pet home to try it out! Interested? Come to the shelter any time during open hours and talk to one of our Customer Care staff!

Be sure to check the `shelter information` box on the listing to see if the pet is located at our Fairfax Campus (4500 West Ox Road, Fairfax) or our Lorton Campus (8875 Lorton Road, Lorton). Then, come in during our open hours! Both of our locations are open Tuesdays and Wednesdays 12-5 p.m., Thursdays and Fridays 12-7 p.m., and Saturdays and Sundays 11 a.m.-5 p.m. For more information on our adoption process, including requirements and fees, visit: www.fairfaxcounty.gov/animalshelter/adopt
