Story
Nothing can get Haverly down. His whole body wags, his kisses are enthusiastic and thorough, and he greets every person like they might be his favorite.It’s a beautiful thing, but it also makes you wonder how he stayed this way.In 2022, Haverly was rescued by Chris Haverly, who saved and transported thousands of unwanted dogs and cats to safety in Southwest Virginia. Chris passed away in January, but his impact lives on in dogs like Haverly - dogs who wake up every day ready to love.After his rescue, Haverly was adopted and became a wonderful family dog - gentle with kids, great with other dogs, and with excellent house manners. Somewhere along the way, though, that life unraveled. Recently, he was picked up as a stray, wandering with no one looking for him.Now he’s back with us, still the same big, affectionate, happy dog, just with a new challenge. Two suspicious lumps on his leg turned out to be mast cell tumors.So, Haverly had surgery.And through all of it -- being lost, being found, the diagnosis, the recovery -- he has stayed exactly the same: soft, joyful, unshaken.Now healthy and lump-free, Haverly is ready to go home again.He was rescued by an angel. He survived abandonment and cancer for a reason.Maybe that reason is you?Come be inspired (and enthusiastically kissed) by Haverly at Animal Aid Society, 80 Butler Farm Road, Hampton, VA. Visiting hours are 9am to noon, daily, including weekends and holidays.Interested? Come for a visit any day of the week - 365 days a year between 9am - 12pm.

Story
Mandy is in a FOSTER home while she waits for her FOREVER home. Please email PRAS-FOSTER@NNVA.GOV if you`d like to meet her!Hi, I’m Mandy, a spayed Boxer mix with a big heart and so much love to give! I spend my days dreaming of long walks, fresh air, and finding my perfect forever home. I’m a friendly and outgoing girl once I get to know you. I can be a little shy at first, but with a little time and patience, I warm up and form a strong bond with my people. Once I feel comfortable, I’m incredibly loyal and love being close to those I trust.I’m not much of a toy enthusiast, but I really enjoy being outside—especially relaxing in the shade with a good stick. It’s my kind of perfect day.I’ve been living in a foster home with children and have done well with them, as long as everyone takes things at my pace. I do best with slow, positive introductions to new people so I can feel safe and comfortable.I’m looking for a home that will give me a little time to settle in and show my true self. In return, I’ll be a deeply devoted companion who will love you like no other.If you’d like to meet me, please email PRAS-FOSTER@NNVA.GOV.

Story
BUST ME OUT OF HERE! My kennel manners are not great because I would rather be cuddling with you. If you`re looking for a happy, go-lucky guy to add to your family - look no further! I love hanging out with new people and seem to be pretty interested in dog friends as well. I would do best in a house with a nice big yard for me to stretch my legs and any children in my next home should be experienced with big dogs. If you`d like to learn more about me, just ask the Care Team!

Story
Ruthie is a 2-year-old, 60-lb Boxer mix with a gentle soul and a brilliant mind. Before coming into rescue, Ruthie lived on her own for at least 6 months, skillfully evading capture, multiple trapping attempts, and surviving in an industrial area of town. Fed by kind mechanics and workers, she learned how to stay safe, avoid danger, and always show up for food — and that intelligence still shines through today. After a dramatic capture, Ruthie has been in a foster home, where she’s proven to be a very polite houseguest. She is fully house-trained and, even at her scariest moments, has never shown a hint of aggression — no growling, no raised lips, just fear. Ruthie is shy and deeply cautious with people, but she is sweet, gentle, and incredibly observant. We would not be surprised if Ruthie spent some of her life in someone’s home.  This brainy girl reads the room like a pro. She knows when a human might approach and will quietly skedaddle to keep herself feeling safe. While she’s still very nervous about leashes and handling, she allows most people to gently scratch her muzzle, and she’s learning — slowly but surely — that human touch isn’t such a bad thing. Watching her progress has been incredibly rewarding, especially as she’s started to enjoy ear scratches and soft affection from her foster mom. Ruthie is a great pack dog. She does beautifully with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and enjoys playful wrestling with dogs her size, but doesn’t demand play.  She happily coexists with the resident Chihuahua in her foster home. Ruthie is calm and content indoors and also enjoys a daily visit to the dog park. She’s a quiet presence who’s perfectly happy lounging on a chair, listening to her foster mom’s Zoom calls, and soaking in the safety of home life. At home, Ruthie is her foster mom’s quiet shadow. She sleeps in her room, wiggles with excitement when she comes home, follows her around the dog park — and yet may still hop off her bed and slip away if that same foster mom walks toward her for a pet. With Ruthie, trust is built in tiny, meaningful moments, and every day brings progress. Because of her history, Ruthie is a high flight-risk dog, especially in the early days. She will need a very committed adopter with a securely fenced yard, experience with fearful or flight-risk dogs, and a willingness to use safety tools like GPS collars, double leashes, and secure handling. Strength matters too — this is a 60-lb girl who needs someone confident and prepared. Ruthie has been around children at the dog park and treats them like little adults — with polite, reserved hesitation. She is food-motivated, sweet, and incredibly smart. With patience, structure, and time, she has all the makings of a truly special companion. Ruthie is one of those dogs who, with the right adopter and a few committed months of trust-building, will become a dream dog. Watching her finally relax, feel safe, and just be a dog has been an absolute privilege — and we can’t wait to see her find the forever home she deserves. ccrnewengland@gmail.com PLEASE NOTE:   Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.  Request an application and learn more about Critter Cavalry at https://www.crittercavalry.com/adoption.April 30, 2026, 5:57 pm

Story
Meet Lucca! This large handsome fella here would love the chance to be the newest addition to your family. Lucca is a fairy strong & excitable(but gentle) giant, so he does ask that any children in the home be at least 6 or older as he doesn`t always know his own size. Additionally, while Lucca does have some history with cats & dogs, he will need to meet any other dogs in the home prior to adoption. Please remember to do any introductions with either people or other animals slowly! If you would like to meet this lovely fella or if you have any questions, please speak to our kennel team & they will be happy to assist!

These pups are in Hampton, Virginia too!

Story
For most of Cinderella's life, the world was a blur -- light and shadow filtered through painful cherry eyes. People noticed the red first. They hesitated. They moved on.But look at her now!After surgery to repair her double cherry eye, the world no longer hurts to see. Cinderella sees you -- your outline, your face, your hand reaching toward her -- and when she realizes it’s for her, she explodes into a wheezy little tap dance of joy. Front paws shuffle. Her whole sturdy body wiggles. Snorts pop out like celebratory trumpets. You will laugh. You won’t be able to help it.Cinderella is seven years old and built like a velvet tank. When she leans into you, it's a full-body commitment. Sit down and she will climb aboard with intention, arrange herself carefully, and inform you -- gently but firmly -- that you are now furniture. Warm, beloved furniture. Soon she is asleep, snoring magnificently, punctuating her dreams with small, delighted snorts.Cinderella loves people with a kind of openhearted sincerity that catches you off guard. She does not play hard to get -- she plays impossible not to love.Because she spent so long navigating discomfort and limited vision, busy environments can still overwhelm her. She needs to be the only pet in a calm, predictable home. No dogs. No cats. Just her and her humans, discovering together how bright and vivid the world can be when it doesn’t hurt.If your idea of happily ever after includes devotion, fuzzy snuggles, and joyful little snorts, come meet Cinderella.Animal Aid Society is located at 80 Butler Farm Road in Hampton, VA. Visiting hours are from 9am to noon, including weekends and 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.

Story
Meet Bonnie! Bonnie is a friendly but nervous pup who enjoys walks, playtime, and being around humans. She is housebroken and crate trained, though she seems to prefer snuggling in bed with her humans at night. She may whine at first, but she settles in quickly.Bonnie can be a bit shy and has been a little overwhelmed around other dogs, so she will need to meet any dogs in her potential adopter’s home before adoption. She will also need to meet all family members, including children, to ensure everyone is comfortable and she feels secure.If you’re interested in meeting Bonnie, please pop in to spend some time with her. Bonnie is looking for a patient, understanding home where she can gain confidence and share her loyalty. Could that be with you?

Story
Storm is in a FOSTER home while she waits for her FOREVER home. If you are interested in meeting with her, please reach out to PRAS-FOSTER@NNVA.GOV. Meet Storm! Storm is currently in foster through the Peninsula Regional Animal Shelter, and her foster family has learned so much about this special girl.Storm is the ultimate cuddle bug. What once seemed like “snoring with her eyes open” turned out to be her sweet little purr. She’s great at independent play but is truly a lap dog at heart — the closer to her person, the better. She loves lounging by the window and keeping an eye on the world outside.Storm has shown she can be a bit of an escape artist. In a previous home, she would slip out to chase neighborhood cats, so she cannot go to a home with small, free-roaming pets. A secure fence and mindful supervision will be important for her continued success.She has had limited interactions with other dogs and can be unsure at first, but once she feels safe, she is very submissive. In her kennel, Storm can appear intimidating — but this is completely stress-related and not an accurate reflection of who she truly is. Outside of that environment, she is affectionate, loyal, and eager to bond. She may bark when a stranger first enters the home, but otherwise she’s a fairly quiet companion.If you’re looking for a Velcro pup who bonds deeply with her people and just wants to be close, reach out to the foster email, so we can get you in contact with her foster family!
