Story
Midge is a big sweet girl - a great Pyrenese we had raised since she was a puppy. She is now 2-1/2 years old and weighs 105 lbs. Up to date on shots, spayed last year. She has lived outside all her life, with occasional stays in the house when temps are very cold. She used to live with goats and got along well with them, but we had sold our goats. We have sheep but they did not become friends, although she can mingle with them in the field. She is friendly with neighborhood cats. She has very thick white coat and is in good health. She is on Nextgard Plus every month for flea protection, eats the small bites Science Hill dry dog food, enjoys big chews and roasted chicken. Good on leash. We cannot keep her because her barking during the day and at night bothers our neighbor, whose house is behind ours. She can hear things we cannot or see in the dark, so she does her job well outside. She is very active day and night but takes naps when there is nothing to do.

Story
Meet Piper! 🐾 Piper is a 45-pound fawn and white pitbull mix with a big personality and an even bigger heart. Estimated to be around 5 years old, she’s the perfect blend of playful energy and cuddle-loving charm. Piper loves bouncing around outside, enjoying fresh air and fun, then winding down with her favorite thing—snuggling up with her people. She’s looking for her forever home with someone who’s ready to give her the love she deserves and receive plenty of affection in return. Piper is ready to be your loyal, happy companion! Piper is very sweet with her cute little underbite and smooshy face. My senior pit doesn't like her and I don't want any fights breaking out.

Story
Bunny B is an almost 6-year-old, 70-pound girl with a strong presence and a thoughtful heart. She came to the shelter after being seized and surrendered along with many other dogs due to improper care, a situation that asked far too much of her and shaped the way she approaches the world today. Because of that past, Bunny B is observant and selective with her trust. She takes time to warm up to new people and situations and does best when allowed to move at her own pace. She is not chaotic or unpredictable — she simply needs clarity, consistency, and respect. Once she feels secure, Bunny B is affectionate, loyal, and deeply connected to her people. She enjoys being involved in daily routines and wants to feel like part of a stable, dependable home. Bunny B thrives in an active but low-key environment where expectations are clear and her boundaries are understood. She can be selective with other dogs and will need slow, thoughtful introductions. Based on what we’ve observed, a home without cats will be the best fit for her. Bunny B is a powerful, intelligent dog with a sensitive heart. She is looking for adopters who understand that trust is built through patience and kept through consistency. For the right home, Bunny B will be a deeply rewarding companion — steady, loyal, and all heart. Bunny B is spayed, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccines, including rabies. She’s also been dewormed and started on flea/tick prevention. To apply for adoption or foster, please copy and paste the following link: https://orangecountyva.gov/158/Animal-Shelter

Story
Tansy is a 2-year-old Beagle weighing about 20 pounds who recently arrived as a stray. She is a gentle little girl with a very sweet nature. Tansy can be shy when meeting new people and is still adjusting to her new surroundings, but it doesn’t take long to see how kind and affectionate she truly is. With a little patience and a calm environment, she begins to relax and show her soft personality. She has done well with other dogs and has been so shy that she barely noticed the cats in our cat room. Dogs like Tansy simply need a little time to feel safe and understood. Once she settles in, we believe she will make a wonderful and devoted companion. Tansy is spayed, microchipped, heartworm tested, dewormed, current on vaccines, and on flea/tick prevention.

Story
Jasper is a 3-year-old Pit Bull mix weighing 67 pounds. He came to us as a stray and has been friendly, outgoing, and very people-oriented from the start. He’s an overgrown puppy at heart with a big smile and an enthusiastic approach to life. In a recent home setting, Jasper was gentle with older children, showed no food aggression, and walked nicely on leash. He enjoys being close to his people and settles well once he has had appropriate exercise and interaction. Jasper does best with clear boundaries and consistent guidance. He is a strong, confident dog who benefits from structure and continued work on basic commands. He is hit or miss with other dogs and would require proper introductions. Jasper must go to a cat-free home. He keeps a clean kennel and does well with routine. Jasper is neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested, dewormed, and current on vaccines and monthly preventatives. He is neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested, dewormed, and current on vaccines, flea/tick prevention, and monthly preventatives.
