Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.We have not met Dax, but his family wants to find him a different home, and asked us to help. Here is what they say: His name is Dax. He is full of energy and loves to run. He does currently live with 3 other dogs but has major aggression towards any new animals. It is hard to take him in public and to the park due to his aggression. He is mainly German shepherd and rottweiler but has some Doberman and wolfdog mixed in. He has attacked stray cats and dogs that have come into our yard but has never shown aggression to any people. He is very energetic but is very easy with kids of all ages and elderly people." If you are seeking a dog to be your best friend, and are willing to keep him safe while he learns boundaries, perhaps this handsome boy would be a good match. Do note that he has high prey drive, and wants to protect you from whatever enters the yard. A neuter would help him immensely as well. Apply and we will send to his family for consideration.    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.July 4, 2025, 2:48 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Dmitri – Still Waiting for His Person  Dmitri is a 1-year-old Hound/Shepherd mix who has been waiting at the shelter since November. Dmitri is still here—wagging his tail, greeting visitors, and hoping today is the day someone chooses him. He is neutered, vaccinated, and ready to go home. Dmitri is an active  high-energy boy, and loves playtime with other dogs. He and his brother Ivan have so much fun with “fetch,” and know how to engage other dogs in play, offering puppy playbows as invitation. Dmitri would make an excellent hiking or adventure partner —young, healthy, and full of life!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.This boy and his identical twin brother Dmitri were found by a resident in our county and brought to the shelter for safety. The boys are very healthy, very well socialized, and lack only leash skills to be perfectly adapted. They are anxious to make friends with new people, and are always happy to have attention. We think they will be fine with other dogs, and they really like one another!      PLEASE NOTE: This pet has been posted by Friends of Campbell County Animal Control, Rustburg, VA.

Brody: Not At shelter (Sierra & John)

German Shepherd Dog

Male, Adult
Rustburg, VA
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Brody was brought to us by a family who had him for only a couple weeks,  and realized they had made a big mistake, getting a big dog that needed exercise at their age. Brody was in another home before that, and we don’t know what his history was prior, but someone has loved him, someone spent some time, teaching him about house training, and someone had done a little leash work with him. He knows how to sit using voice commands and a hand command. He is not a pushy dog, but rather submissive. He is on the smaller side, and we are guessing he was from a backyard breeder. Regardless , he has a wonderful personality, is friendly with every human he has met, and we would feel very comfortable, placing him in a home with other dogs who are also friendly. We were told he has interest in cats, and we take that to me that he would probably chase a cat. As far as children, we don’t know what his exposure has been to children, and for dogs where we have no history, we recommend children over the age of six or seven, who are dog savvy, and no not to run, grab, or sit on dogs. Does it sound like he might be a good match for you? What else can we tell you?   PLEASE NOTE: This pet has been posted by Friends of Campbell County Animal Control, Rustburg, VA.
