Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Marco and his brother Polo were abandoned on the Eastern Shore of Virginia.  They are both friendly and loving and looking for their own furever families.  We feel it is best to separate them because Marco is the leader and Polo needs to have his chance to shine.  As puppies, they will need to be housetrained but they already use a dog door and potty outside rather than in their kennel. They are completing their puppy shots and will be neutered soon.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 25, 2024, 6:37 am

Story
Brutus is a stunning boy with lots of strength. He's playful, goofy, and a big sweetie! He is unfortunately living his life confined to a bedroom, hoping someone can give him another chance at life.This sweet boy was surrendered 2 years ago because his owners decided to move without him. He was luckily adopted and has been very loved since then, but now he has run into another situation through no fault of his own. Brutus had a child with special needs move into his house. Although he's shown no aggression and has not had any issues with the child, his owner is concerned about the child not understanding how to interact with Brutus and therefore has to keep him separated. Instead of Brutus coming back to the shelter again to live in a kennel, his owner is keeping him until he can find a new home. It's not his owners fault and he is trying to do what's best for everyone, but unfortunately Brutus is suffering because of it. He isn't getting the exercise or attention he needs living his life in one bedroom, and he desperately deserves another chance at a family.He is a big boy with an even bigger heart, sweet as can be, and dog friendly. He has gained 15 lbs just since the recent change in his lifestyle, weighing almost 100 lbs now. He needs a family committed to helping him lose weight, and providing both the mental stimulation and physical exercise that he needs.He would benefit from some training to help him work on his leash manners as he was in a home that used an invisible fence, so he wasn't leash trained. A dog-savvy owner would be best for Brutus, as well. Please consider coming to Brutus's rescue and showing him what forever really means. He's ready for someone to give him the permanent home he deserves 🤎 Primary Color: Blue Brindle Weight: 92 Age: 3yrs 7mths 0wks

Story
Breezy Bugs is another one of our Golden Girls. She channels her inner Dorothy character aka Bea Arthur and is ready with a wise crack when you walk by her kennel. If you dare not take her out, you better be ready to hear some jibber jabber from her. Just like Dorothy, she has had ups and downs in her life. She came to HSWC emaciated, thought to be wandering on her own for a while. She now weighs 56 pounds and can still gain more to be her best self. It doesn't seem like she has had a good home but she is spunky and spirited and ready to make the best of any situation. She walks well, seems to mingle in social situations well. She likes things her way, and loves treats. She needs to be in a loving and patient home. Ages10+ for homes with kids. With young people that know how to give a dog space and not interfere during meal time or snacks. Breezy has not had a steady flow of food in her life so she will always be anxious to gobble those yummy treats. New friends need to be aware that since coming to HSWC the staff and volunteers have been walking by her kennel and giving her treats through the gate. Be cautious with hands coming toward her face because she now expects those fingers to have treats in them. She is well mannered And is looking for love in all the right places now!! Hopefully with a comfy dog bed and an all day buffet. She is a beautiful girl who has lots of life left to live and needs a companion to enjoy things with. She does not need a long walk. She is quick to get her potty done and circle on back inside to her comfy bunk. Ready to enjoy popcorn and a Golden Girls marathon and snuggle up to her forever person. Her heart is true, she's a pal and a confidant. Come and visit her and you will see she will tell you thank you for being a friend. Primary Color: Brown Weight: 62 Age: 9yrs 6mths 3wks

Story
Heavenly HeathCliFF is a real dream. Well....once he gets out of the kennel. He is not a fan of strangers staring at him in his kennel. But once he is by your side, it is smooth sailing. He has the most beautiful combination of brown colored Merle patterns and the most soulful eyes that reach right into your heart. He seems to have been a tie out dog based on his pattern of walking to the end of the leash and stopping. He has very polite leash manners and checks in often to give you a smile and sometimes a kiss. He came to us underweight and seems to have had rather irregular feeding sessions in his previous situation. He is conducting interviews for his furever family. Please stop by and meet him. Here are some of his terms and conditions 🤣1. Please feed often. 2. Looking for love♥️💙💖3. Likes to go for walks. Willing to wear outfits if prizes are involved.4. Please give treats.... Any size, shape, flavor, texture or brand. Not picky.5. Please give nice blanket. Pillow optional.6. My own space...crate with a privacy curtain so people don't stare at me would be nice. 7. No returns please, I'm scared to get moved again. 8. Would like to learn some things the other kids know. down, and show your belly for a treat please.9. Did I already say food? Well, more food then please. 10. Something called field trips. Sounds interesting. Thank you for coming to the interview. Once you fill out my app I'll contact you soon. Love.HeathCliFF🐾🐾Update from his second home. Adopted and returned. Seemed uneasy with inconsistent schedules and kids in and out of the house.

Story
Brock is just a giant puppy, full of love, energy, and dreams of a forever home. He says he really only wants 2 things in life - humans to love him and other dogs to play with! Oh yeah, and definitely some grass for this adorable little grass goblin. His favorite way to relax is to frolick in some fields and then army crawl his way to the perfect spot to lounge and people watch.If you're looking for a buddy for your pup, then Brock is your guy. He has tons of playful energy and can't wait to go on adventures, romp around with some other dogs, and then get all the love and cuddles.This sweet boy is looking for someone who will take time to train and nurture his enthusiasm for life. He's so treat motivated and aims to please, so with a dog savvy owner and some consistency and routines - he says he'll have the best manners in no time.So to recap - do you have access to some fields? A special hook up with the best grass spots? Do you have some other pups Brock can play poker with or learn a synchronized swimming routine with? Maybe some puzzles and enrichment activities to stimulate this smart boy's mind? Then you'd be perfect for him! Please consider giving Brock the forever home he dreams of every night.
