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.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.This boy and his identical, twin brother Ivan 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.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.UPDATE: Sugar is her new name, and it fits this princess.  She is making baby steps in becoming more confident, but we know she has a long way to go. Her foster family is doing everything they can! Fencing, a private room, a gentle dog to be her mentor.... all are part of the process. ***When beautiful Cherryl was signed over to the shelter by her caregiver, we were told she was eight years old and had already had eight litters of puppies! We will never know because the person who cared for her said she had rescued her from a neighbor who had allowed her to become pregnant over and over. We are glad that we were able to get a spay for Cherryl, and she is recovering nicely.    PLEASE NOTE: This pet has been posted by Friends of Campbell County Animal Control, Rustburg, VA.
