Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Nirvana is an itty bitty Pitty girl! She was originally brought in to the shelter as part of a neglect/ animal cruelty case. Many of you were kind enough to share her post and donate towards the care of Nirvana and two other dogs from this horrible situation. Nirvana is now healthy (except of one sore on her back hip that is still healing), spayed, and vaccinated. She is heartworm negative as well. Nirvana will greet you with so much excitement that her whole body wiggles. She is so full of love and just needs someone to focus it all on. Nirvana would be best suited as an only pet, though we aren’t ruling out doggy meet and greets. She has been starved, and is now understandably very protective of her food. For this reason, Nirvana would need to be fed away from any other animals. For more information please call the Bedford County Animal Shelter at 540-586-7690. To be preapproved to adopt, please fill out an application in the link provided https://friendsofbedfordcountyanimalshelter.rescuegroups....

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. We are at a loss as to what to do. Right now the shelter is totally full. There are dogs in every place possible inside and outside of the facility. There have been 2 large groups of intakes from court case dogs. Those dogs have been now been surrendered. Friends of Friends of Bedford County Animal Shelter, Inc. is currently footing the bill to board 8 dogs. With a heavy discount it is costing us $800 a week. We are without a choice. Our rescue group is donation based, and it’s putting a huge hurting on our funds. Other than the boarding, we will be paying for all of the spays/ neuters, vaccinations, and much needed medical care. We hate to ask for donations when this is such a hard time financially for so many. If you are in the position to donate even a few bucks we would appreciate it. Here are pics of the dogs from one of the court cases. Molly, Milo, and Sweet Pea, have found placement. The others will be searching for homes as well. Our hearts go out to these animals and we are thankful that they will get the food, care, and medical attention they need. *Tiko is not yet available for adoption If interested in adopting, please fill out an application at the link below: https://friendsofbedfordcountyanimalshelter.rescuegroups....

Hey there, I'm Zander! I have been described as: loving, curious, smart, wonderful, sweet, gentle, and "a very good boy!" I am a true gentleman on leash and keep a stellar dog-meanor. Mean-ing I know how to keep my cool when I'm hangin with my dogs, ya feel me? Anyway, I would really love to have a family to explore the great outdoors with..I make a great co-pilot. And then afterwards, we can go home and share a large pupperoni pizza and I can show you all my neat tricks, like sit, shake, and down. And then we can snuggle and..just chill. What'dya say? Got room for me? If so, you can visit me any time or email my friends about fostering me or adopting me at adoption@lynchburghumane.org or foster@lynchburghumane.org!

Story
Shellie came to the pound as a stray when she was 5 months of age; therefore, we do not know much about her. She appears to have Boxer traits by jumping around and wiggling her back end and terrier markings. Shellie is coming along in her training to be a great companion animal, although she still has lots of puppy energy as a 1 year old. Shellie has been with trainers to teach her basic commands, recall, in home skills, and walking on a leash. This beautiful girl has a big personality! At a year old, Shelly just loves life, especially playing and exploring. She has made good progress with basic manners while in her foster home, but she still needs help fine tuning her leash manners and evaluating her social skills. She is very athletic and has lots of drive, so channeling that drive in an appropriate manner is key to fulfilling her needs and keep her from getting destructive (lots of structured play time through tug, chasing toys, and safe toys/bones for chewing). She’s improving with her house manners, beautifully sits at doors until released and is crate trained. She still requires supervision inside the home when not in her crate as that active mind will get her into trouble until she is more mature! Shelly is dog friendly; however, she has the tendency to become aroused too quickly and during play with another dog it can turn south fast. This isn’t uncommon with terrier breeds, so taking her to the dog park or dog daycare is not recommended for her. With a high prey drive, placement in a home without other dogs or smaller dogs/pets is ideal unless the family has experience living with strong breeds. However, if you currently have a dog, we recommend a with your dog as part of the adoption process. Shellie has been dewormed, microchipped, is free of external parasites, and has received the Distemper-Parvo combination vaccine. Since he is not yet spayed, therefore she is not available for adoption outside of the counties contiguous to Bedford County. For more information, please call the Bedford Humane Society at 540-586-6100, or go to https://www.bhsva.org/adoptables to fill out an adoption application.
