Story
Even though Odie was abandoned by his previous family, he still loves people.  He gets along with other dogs and children.  He is high energy and hasn't learned to meet other dogs.  He can be a bit intimidating to other dogs.  His foster brother is a small 13 yr old rat terrier and Odie loves to sleep with him.  It takes a slow introduction for him to settle down.   If you want a hiking or camping buddy, Odie is your guy.  Playing fetch and tug are also favorite things that he likes.  He would love a family who would treat him like a family member.  .  He has already had his dental and is ready to start his new life as a family member.  If you are interested, please contact Rainbow Rescue at 757-472-1583 or rainbowanimalrescueva@gmail.comMarch 10, 2026, 12:08 am

Story
Hello meet Lady! 3 years old (old English bull dog mix, not spayed). I have been fostering her for about almost two months now. A gentlemen reached out to my aunt seeking new home for her because he was moving and couldnt take her! To avoid her going to the animal shelter I took her in to foster and or keep. She’s a sweet dog non reactive. She is not very physically active although I have gotten her to lose a few pounds since having her because she was overweight. I mostly keep my dogs outdoors unless there is extreme weather and she is not a huge fan ( definitely an indoor dog). Again she is very chill and affectionate. Mostly wants to lay around near you. She isn’t a fan of early mornings either! She loves affection and relaxing and would do better in a slower paced home !

Story
SUPER CUTE bulldog TITAN, 5 1/2 years old, has been shuffled around a couple times so it's no wonder he was shut down upon his arrival to VBACAC. Fast forward to today, Titan has proven his diligence in working to become that confident boy we all know was inside. Enjoying walks with trusted friends and hanging out with those trusted friends has been the lifeline Titan needed. He is again learning the outside world can be fun and exciting, happy and bright. His short legs, half tail and deep black fur are just the icing on the cake to this devoted and loyal boy who's ready to be petted and given hiney scratches which he treasures more than toys. Titan is looking to be the only pet in a home - he prefers the quiet company of humans - and a home with older or no children.Experienced at living in a home and being part of a family: Titan is house trained. Titan can be trusted roaming free when left alone. Titan is scared of vacuums and lawnmowers. If you know this sweet boy is meant to be your new buddy, come on out and just ask to meet him! Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 63 Age: 5yrs 11mths 0wks

Story
Hi, I'm Princess 👑 I'm a fun 50-pound bundle of love! I adore humans, and I'm patiently waiting (okay... trying to be patient) for my perfect person or people to come find me. I love going for walks and I'm basically a leash superstar. I'll let you set the pace, no problem-but don't be surprised if I glance back at you every so often just to make sure you're still there... and maybe to confirm whether you're carrying snacks. Which brings me to an important topic: Snacks. I love them. A lot. Some might say I'm "highly food motivated," but I prefer to think of myself as goal-oriented. The good news for you? I'm super trainable! I already know "sit" and "shake" (because I am, in fact, a lady), and I'm ready to learn more-especially if treats are involved in this educational journey. When I get excited, I unleash my signature move: Zoomies. I can go from "graceful princess" to "tiny tornado" in seconds. Oh! And I'm house-trained and smart enough to use a potty pad if needed. Beauty and brains. :)I do prefer to be your one and only pet, but I have plenty of love to go around-even for the tiny humans! So if your life could use more love, more laughs, and a loyal shadow who thinks you're the center of the universe... I might just be your girl. Come meet me-I'll be accepting visitors daily from noon to 5 p.m. at the Birdneck Animal Shelter. I'll be the adorable one waiting for you 💕 Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 53

Story
Fred is a wonderful dog who I adopted when I was fostering him. He’s very sweet, loves all other animals and kids. He’s a gentle giant. We just had a huge expense happen that I couldn’t have known when I adopted him so I need to find a new home unfortunately. He has to take some anxiety meds but could be weaned off with a vet and hip meds indefinitely. They are rather low cost through the vet or an online website like Dutch.

Story
Meet Layla,A sweet and loving girl who loves to be outside so she can play! Layla is very active so she would do best in a home that can keep up with her energy. She would need daily exercise, preferably a fenced in area where she can run/roam around freely, but a good walk and playtime with her will also help. Layla is potty trained/crate trained and also great with other dogs and people of all ages. If you feel you could be a match for Layla, fill out an application so you can interact with her!
