Story
Panda is a lazy silly girl ! She was with me thru my cancer and laid with me every step of the way! I e had her since she was born in my back yard in 2018! She is very dear to my heart but due to recent events I unfortunately have to part ways with my dear sweet Panda bear! Please know she’s only used to women mostly because she’s only ever been with me and my son. She is weary of strangers and very protective of her people she is loyal just give her time to adjust she will warm up I promise give her grace she is scared of loud sounds as well! Thanks

Story
Meet Tommen!Some dogs arrive at the shelter with a story that`s easy to tell. Tommen`s isn`t one of them.This handsome, 1-year, 7-month-old neutered Yellow Labrador Retriever mix first came to us as a stray, with no one to tell us where he`d been or what he`d experienced. Like so many shelter dogs, he was given a fresh start and quickly found a family to call his own.When Tommen met that family, he was polite, friendly, and comfortable around everyone—including the children. He wasn`t especially interested in playing with them, but there were no concerns, and everyone felt he was a wonderful match. Before long, Tommen left the shelter and began what we hoped would be his happily ever after.Sadly, that`s not how his story unfolded.Shortly after his adoption, Tommen was rehomed. We don`t know exactly what happened during his time away from us, but we do know that he eventually found his way back to the shelter after his new family reported some behavioral concerns. Since returning, Tommen needed a little time to settle in—which is understandable after so much change—but each day we`ve watched more of the dog we remembered come back.The sweet, affectionate, people-loving Tommen is here again.Like many young Labradors, Tommen`s brain is often moving a hundred miles an hour. He can have a hard time focusing on the task at hand because, well... he`s young, curious, and excited about everything! He`ll thrive with someone who understands that consistency is key. A predictable routine, patient guidance, and positive training will help him become the very best version of himself.Interestingly, Tommen isn`t overly food motivated—at least not while he`s been with us—so his future family may need to get creative when it comes to training. The fun part? We think play may be the key to his heart. He absolutely loves to play, and a simple tennis ball might be all the motivation he needs to learn new skills and build confidence.He`s the kind of dog who enjoys being close to his people, soaking up attention, and simply being part of your day. Despite the uncertainty he`s experienced, Tommen still greets familiar faces with a wagging tail and an open heart. He deserves someone who will see him not as a dog with a complicated past, but as a dog who has simply been searching for stability.Because we want Tommen`s next chapter to be his last, we`ve put a few guidelines in place to help set him—and h

Story
Tanner is a senior Retriever mix with a gentle way about him. He moves slowly and deliberately, except for his tail, which seems determined to express every positive emotion he’s ever had. There’s a softness in his face and a warmth in his golden eyes that hint at both what he’s been through and what he’s still hoping for.When Tanner came to us after his person passed away, he was in rough shape. Thin, exhausted, and so anemic from fleas, even a bath would have overwhelmed his system. Those first days, he spent most of his time curled up in his little apartment, watching us with the weary caution of a dog who wasn’t sure what came next.So we kept things simple. Good food. Supplements. Soft beds. A lot of calm, no-pressure kindness. Slowly he realized the world wasn’t trying to knock him down anymore. His coat brightened. His energy returned. And one day he walked outside with surprising confidence, tail spinning like it had been waiting for its moment to shine.These days he enjoys the basics: a quiet walk, a soft place to nap, and anyone willing to offer a slow back scratch. He leans in with his full weight, which is flattering right up until you remember how solid fifty pounds can be. Pull out a cookie and he looks like a child seeing magic for the first time.Tanner isn’t dramatic, and he isn’t trying to reinvent himself. He’s simply a sweet, steady, grateful dog who appreciates the small, good things. If you like peaceful mornings, soft snoring, and a companion whose loyalty arrives without fanfare, you’ll understand him immediately.TANNER IS IN FOSTER -- PLEASE CALL THE SHELTER TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT TO MEET HIM!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
Trust. He started with none, but now he has some. Flynn came to us from Sussex after being taken from a horrible kennel/living situation.He didn't know what to make of us, but it was evident he wanted to steer clear of us. Slowly, but surely, he has taken an extra breath and realized we may not be so bad after all.What sealed the deal for Flynn was the magic of playgroup - he met a friend and the world opened up for him. He looked young, happy and free - not worried and stressed. It's a beautiful thing to see in a dog.Flynn is three-years-old and has already been neutered. He is gentle and curious and you can tell how badly he wants to be your friend, but he needs just a smidge of patience. Flynn is slowly realizing that we offer only good for him - he deserves the best and that's what we are bringing for him.Braveness looks amazing on Flynn - come see for yourself! Flynn and all of his friends are available to see every single day from 9am-12pm!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
Hi, I'm Nishia handsome black Pit Bull/Lab mix with a heart as big as my 60-pound frame. I'm five years old, full of playful energy, and always ready for the next adventure. Whether it's a hike through the woods, a jog around the neighborhood, or just a good old-fashioned game of fetch, I'm your go-to guy. And when the day winds down? I'm all about those cozy cuddles. I get along well with other dogs and would thrive with a high-energy playmate to keep up with my zest for life. Id also be a great match for an active human who loves being outdoors and can give me the structure and consistency I need to be my best self. I can be a bit rambunctious. I am respectful of cats who put me in my place but give chase if they run. I'm a smart cookie and eager to please. I already know how to sit, stay, and come. I'm potty trained, crate trained, and walk well on a leash, so I'm ready to hit the road with you. I'm also neutered, vaccinated, and heartworm negative healthy and ready for my forever home. Right now, I'm being fostered in Colonial Heights, VA, but I can be transported out of state for the right match. Please note, there is a transport fee. If you're looking for a loyal, fun-loving companion who is equal parts adventure buddy and cuddle bug, I might just be your perfect fit. Fill out an application and let's start our journey together. I can't wait to meet you!
