He is up to date on vaccines, microchipped, heartworm negative, on flea/heartworm prevention, house trained, crate trained, and leash trained. Valerian was surrenderd to the shelter in Chesapeake, VA when the owner could no longer care for him. He had previously lived outside in a pen and was uncertain and stand off-ish when he first came to us, but he warmed up to a goofy, woo-ing, wiggle butt boy. He is just so sweet! Valerian would be fine in a home with children 12+ due to his high energy level and as an only pet.

Story
Apple Jacks is a young (born 1.18.23) male Husky/Akita mix. He is up to date on vaccines, microchipped, on flea/heartworm prevention, and we're still fine-tuning house, crate, and leash training. Apple Jacks was born in our rescue, along with his other siblings we named the Cereal Killer Crew, in keeping with the theme started with their mom, Cheerio : Frosted Mini Wheat "Frosty", Cinnamon Toast Crunch "Cinnamon", Cocoa Puff "Cocoa", Cap'n Crunch "Cap'n", Lucky Charms "Lucky", Fruit Loops "Fruity", and Apple Jacks "Jack". These pups (born 1.18.23) were born to Akita mom, Cheerio, so we HAD to name them after cereals 😅 We didn't know Cheerio was pregnant when she arrived with us. We took her to the vet for what we *thought* was a UTI but.... surprise! She was pregnant. She was surrendered to the shelter with 3 huskies, including an intact male, so we feel we can safely call these guys Akita/Husky mixes (Huskitas). She whelped 8 puppies (4 girls, and 4 boys), but one of the females (Rice Crispy) was still born. Apple Jacks is very friendly with people and other dogs. He would do well in a home with a female canine companion.

These pups are in Hampton, Virginia too!

Story
This is Eden. She is a 4 year old Siberian Husky and is full of love. I have only lived in apartments my whole time living in Virginia, so Eden had to live in small spaces for many years. My husband is always deployed or underway, so all my attention goes to my infant. I also work full time so she is just in the apartment alone all week. She deserves a home with a backyard to run in, a family who can give her the attention she deserves. I did get her to do train and boarding for 3 weeks. The trainer told me to keep up with the training and I could not because of work, my son, and etc. So she is a little rusty with the commands but she has potential to be proficient again she just needs to keep practicing her commands/training with her forever person. She is spayed, all shots are updated until December (I have documentation if needed). She is not cage trained but she does perfect when you leave her out (if you have to go to work or somewhere. She is not a chewer!

Story
Friendly, fuzzy, family dog seeking friendly family (or friend), fuzziness optional, for fun and mutual adoration.Meet Tyr - currently the undisputed mayor of Ice Season. While the rest of us are negotiating with our gloves and reconsidering our life choices, this magnificent goof is outside celebrating like this weather is a long-awaited Amazon order that finally arrived!He's five years old, sturdy and bright, the picture of good health, and already knows how to live in a house without redecorating it in chaos. Housetrained. Experienced. A professional in the ancient arts of Couch, Kitchen Supervision, and Loyal Following From Room To Room.Tyr is playful, energetic, and has shared his life with young children. Humans are, in his view, an excellent invention. He greets them as though each one might be the long-lost friend he's been waiting for since birth.Other dogs? He has opinions. Some receive a polite nod. Some do not make the guest list. He is not out looking for trouble - he simply prefers not to hand out roommate badges to every four-legged applicant. Think discerning, not dramatic.Tyr came from a home filled with care and connection, and through no fault of his own, the ground shifted beneath the people who loved him. Now he waits, carrying all that good history with him, ready to place it gently at someone else’s feet.There's something special about a dog who already knows how to belong to a family. They walk into your life and settle in as if they have always been there.If you have room for devotion, for snowy-day joy, for a steady shadow with excellent ears, Tyr is ready to clock in.Animal Aid Society is located at 80 Butler Farm Road in Hampton. Visiting hours are 9am to noon, including weekends and holidays.Come meet the boy who thinks winter is wonderful - and who's certain to think you are, too.Interested?
