Story
Murphy is a lovable goofball with a heart as big as his paws. At just 1 year old, this Boxer Lab Pit mix is full of playful energy, affection, and personality. Weighing about 73 pounds, Murphy is a big happy pup who is ready to bring joy and laughter to his forever family. Murphy is crate trained, housebroken with supervision, and does very well with other dogs, although his enthusiastic and bouncy play style may be a bit much for smaller or more delicate companions. He is smart, eager to please, and already knows basic cues such as sit, stay, and down. He also walks nicely on leash and enjoys spending time with his people. With continued structure and consistency, Murphy will continue to thrive and show just how wonderful he can be. Because of his size and playful nature, Murphy would do best in a home with older children who can comfortably interact with a larger energetic dog. Murphy is neutered, healthy, and ready to meet his new family. If you think Murphy might be the perfect fit, email adoptpetersburg@gmail.com to learn more or set up a meet and greet.

Story
Sherbet is a 2 year old boxer and pit bull mix who arrived at the shelter after living his life on a chain. He came to us underweight with visible scars from fly strike, yet despite everything he has endured, he has a bright, hopeful spirit and a deep desire for connection. Sherbet is energetic and playful and loves any opportunity to stretch his legs and enjoy freedom. Once he gets his energy out, he leans in for affection and clearly wants to build a bond with the people around him. With consistent care and structure, he is already showing how much potential he has to grow into a loving companion. At this time, Sherbet is still learning to feel comfortable around other dogs, especially while on leash. We are working with him on confidence building and positive exposure so that he can better understand how to navigate these interactions. With patience, training, and the right environment, we believe he will continue to make progress. Sherbet is looking for a home that can give him the stability and kindness he has never known. He deserves a chance to thrive indoors with a family who will guide him, continue his training, and appreciate the loyal, affectionate dog he is becoming. If you are ready to help a deserving young dog start a new life, Sherbet would love to meet you. Email adoptpetersburg@gmail.com

Story
🌿 From surviving… to finally living — meet Xena 🌿 When Xena first arrived at Hopewell Animal Services, she weighed just 35 pounds — a shadow of the dog she was meant to be. But look at her now. 💛 With good food, care, and kindness, this 3–4 year old brindle and white boxer mix is starting to fill out (and glow up!) into the healthy, happy girl she was always meant to be. And the best part? Her spirit is just as beautiful as her transformation. Xena is the definition of sweet and easygoing. She walks beautifully on leash, enjoys the company of other dogs, and finds pure joy in the simple things: 🌿 Exploring the outdoors 👃 Sniffing everything 🦴 Enjoying tasty treats ☀️ Rolling around in the grass After a past of neglect, Xena isn’t asking for much — just a soft place to land, a loving human, and the chance to keep enjoying life the way she’s learning to now. ✨ She’s done surviving. Now she’s ready to be someone’s cherished girl. ✨

Story
💎🐾 Meet Crystal — Your Playful, Thoughtful Companion! 🐾💎 Crystal is a 2–3 year old, 55-lb, spayed boxer/pittie mix with a stunning brown coat, black muzzle, and eyes that make you feel like she’s thinking deeply… and maybe scheming a little fun, too! She may be a bit reserved at first, but once she feels safe, her playful, affectionate personality shines through — and when Crystal chooses you, it’s something truly special. 💛 This thoughtful girl loves: 🐾 Long walks and outdoor adventures, exploring at her own pace — nose down, tail up, taking it all in 🐾 Fetch and rolling in the grass 🐾 Following commands like sit, staying connected, and looking to you with a wagging tail for guidance and reassurance Crystal is an introvert at heart, so she’d thrive in a calmer home where someone appreciates a deeper, quieter connection. She can get a little jumpy when excited (who can blame her?), but with patience, consistency, and love, she truly blossoms. If you’re looking for a loyal, playful, and thoughtful companion who gives her heart fully once she trusts you, Crystal could be the perfect match.

He never pee or poop inside , always asks to go outside when needed. Loves to stay with people and try different foods. Never chews stuff or rips any couch. Recognize stranger and bark if someone comes to the door. He loves cats and dogs and play with them . He loves to walk , run and play with the ball . He stays quite calm in the car and doesn’t run away from home or when outside . I like to him stay with a family that take care of him and do not leave him alone all day.

Story
Priest is the kind of soul who does not rush into the spotlight. He waits gently at the edge of the room, watching with soft eyes and a tender heart, as if he is carefully choosing where to place his loyalty. And once he chooses you, it is forever. This quiet, sweet boy has a calm spirit that feels like a deep breath after a long day. Priest is extremely loving and truly enjoys being loved on. A slow head scratch, a warm lap, a soft blanket beside you on the couch, these are his treasures. He leans into affection with complete trust, soaking up every gentle touch as if it is the greatest gift in the world. Though he may seem a little reserved at first, give him a moment and you will discover just how devoted he can be. Priest bonds deeply and quickly with his people. He has a beautiful way of becoming your shadow, following you from room to room, content just knowing he is near you. He does not demand attention, he simply offers companionship that is steady, loyal, and pure.

Story
Meet Diablo! This handsome boy has been here with us at the shelter since 8/26/2024 that is 425 days, and has had no real interest so it is time we do a refresh and reintroduce like he is new! He was a stray that was never claimed so we do not know much about his background but what we do know about him is that he will love and protect you from any danger. He will require multiple meet and greets to be able to get fully acquainted and comfortable with his new potential family. He is not great with meeting new people until you earn his trust but with patience and a lot of yummy treats he does get there. He loves everyone at the shelter and gets so excited, does a little bunny hop prance dance and is a love bug to all of us. He loves his but scratches, to run around and play and likes to pretend he is a seal with no ears. He is not great with quick sudden movements especially near his face so we would suggest no homes with small children. He has been good with dogs at the shelter especially the ladies but we do require meet and greets if another dog resides in the home. Diablo all in all is such a good boy he just needs a chance and a new owner to put in the work with him and he will turn into your protector and your best friend.
