Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Tinkerbelle is safe in a foster home where she is living a warm, protected life while waiting to see if anyone will come forward to claim her. She arrived wearing a chain around her neck that weighed nearly a pound, and must surely have made her life miserable. This little sweetheart is hoping to learn to trust humans. She is handshy, and will bolt if frightened, and we feel a fenced yard will be the only way to keep her safe.    PLEASE NOTE: This pet has been posted by Friends of Campbell County Animal Control, Rustburg, VA. For questions about the pet, please email us at FOACinfo@gmail.com. All adoptions begin with an application, found under the "Animals" tab on our website, friendsofcampbellcounty.org. *Unaltered babies under the age of six months can be adopted only to residents of Campbell County, the City of Lynchburg, and counties touching Campbell County. *Unaltered adult pets six months or older will need to be sterilized before they can be adopted outside our local area of Campbell County, the City of Lynchburg, or counties touching Campbell. *We do not promote dog adoptions to homes where an invisible fence is the fencing of choice. *We do not permit cats or kittens to be declawed following adoption.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 6, 2025, 12:14 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. This is Bean. He’s a chiweenie . He came to us from a hoarding house a while back. Bean has some preferences for his forever home. He wants to be the only dog. No men, cats, or people with hats! (He’s going to write a Dr. Seuss book for little neurotic dogs ). Kids are weird and must be barked at endlessly, so probably he doesn’t want to live with any of those, either. Bean’s foster mom reports that Bean would happily stay under the covers in bed for days at a time. Bean is 5-6 years old and about 6 pounds. He’s a very sweet boy (if you aren’t any of the things he hates that are clearly outlined above ) . He has this little trick where he puts his paws to his chest for treats and spins Bean's adoption fee is $300 and he is fully vetted including a recent dental.

Harper started out her life as a feral dog in a field, so she's made tremendous progress!    Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 13, 2024, 4:16 pm

Story
On June 12, 46 dogs were saved from a "rescue" in Patrick County where they were living in crates and outdoor kennels and not being properly cared for. As you know we have a special place in our hearts for Patrick County Public Animal Shelter and were able to help them by taking six of the dogs into our program! Meet Little Miss, who is now ready for adoption! Little Miss is a 13 pound, mixed breed diva who is guessed to be about 10-12 months old. Little Miss has a big personality but she's no little lap dog! She is scared of new people and prefers to keep her distance. She is learning so many things in her foster home but will need someone who understands that she did not come from a normal environment and will need basic training and time to adjust. Little Miss is comforted by the presence of other dogs and will need at least one other and a fenced in yard to be happy. She is a lucky little miss and is ready to start the search for her furEVER home! Augusta Dog Adoptions is a 501c3, foster-based rescue. We take applications online and schedule adoptions in Waynesboro, VA. A $175.00 adoption fee ($300 for puppies under 6 months old) helps us take care of all the dogs we rescue. All dogs are spayed/neutered, tested for heartworm and tick borne diseases (if old enough), microchipped, and vaccinated for rabies (if old enough), distemper/parvo and bordetella. They are also treated for internal and external parasites. Many dogs also receive extensive medical care such as dental work and major surgeries.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi … my name is Max (or Maxey if you prefer)! Please take a minute to read my entire bio to find out everything you need to know about me.   If you think I might be the perfect pup for you, go to www.allamericanmuttrescue.org/forms and complete the adoption application online. Max is a little puzzle … a chorkie (Chihuahua/yorkie mix) … with some definite opinions about life and how things should go!  He is absolutely precious, and he is fine being around people and other dogs similar to him in size … as long as you are willing to live by his ‘code of conduct.’  He is really smart, and he definitely understands that everything he enjoys (food, treats, toys, etc.) comes from people … but he doesn’t care for said people touching him or picking him up.  And don’t expect it to change.  He lived with one person for almost 7 years, and the attitude did not change.  If he wants something from you, he will come to you and ask for it, but all the ‘no touch’ rules still apply.  He really wants to stay where he can see his person, but ‘seeing’ is good enough for him. If you want him to go with you, drop a slip lead on him and he will go! Life with Max will also be much simpler if his home has a securely fenced yard so he can get outside to go potty.  He learns new routines very quickly, too. So … if you’re looking for a new cuddlebug, Max is NOT your guy.  If you’re looking for a furry friend as a low-maintenance companion, he could be the perfect boy for you.  Adults only, please … no little ones who might forget and break his ‘no touch’ rules! Approximate age/birthdate:  April 4, 2015 Weight/size: 13 lbs Housebroken:  YES (as long as you do your part and get him out regularly) Crate trained:  YES Personality:  a bit stand-offish, alert, wants things his way, serious Energy level:  medium Fenced yard required?:   YES – a fenced yard will make life with Max so much easier Does he/she jump fences?  NO Leash walk with manners:  YES Obedience training:  NO Riding in vehicles:  RIDES OK      Spayed/neutered:   YES Up-to-date on routine vaccinations:   YES Microchipped:   YES Social with other dogs:  YES although he prefers other pups closer to his size Social with cats: Has not been around cats in foster care Good with children:  No children please.  He is unpredictable and would likely bite if touched. Adoption donation: $75 We are an all-volunteer group, so please be patient and understand that it takes an average of 7-14 days to process the applications including reference checks, follow-up questions and home visits.  You can expedite the process by providing accurate email addresses for all your references.  Time to make phone calls is limited and we often have multiple applications in process.  We make every effort to move through them as quickly as possible. When your application is approved, we will schedule a home visit/meet-and-greet to see if Max picks you too. If it seems that the adoption will be a good match for all, there is an adoption fee, and an adoption contract to be signed. Please feel free to email weluvpups@hotmail.com if you have additional questions.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 3, 2024, 1:59 pm
