Story
Meet Martha!! This sweet girl is 8/9 years old and is looking for her new furever home!! She is super sweet, highly food motivated, and we think she was a linebacker in her past life. She may have some age on her, but she does not act like it at all! She gets very excited, and will body check you but that just adds to her wonderful personality! She has been good with dogs she has met here but she does prefer the boys. She can get nervous when meeting someone new and can get hand shy if you move to quick but once she gets to know you and trust you, she's good. If interested in Martha the shelter is open Monday-Friday from 10-3pm staff pending, or you can call the shelter at 804-520-9397 ext.5 and set up an appointment.

Meet Jake, Jake is our longest running resident here at the shelter! He has been here for almost 10 MONTHS! Jake may not want the love of other animals, but BOYYYYY does this guy love his people. He loves to cuddle and enjoys playing with all the toys. He is very clean about his kennel and waits patiently for his turn to go outside so house training we do not see being a problem at all! We know it is really hard finding family's that do not already have any pets, but we will NOT GIVE UP!! Please share and help us find the perfect forever home for Jake, he really does deserve it!

Story
Meet Tom – Part of The Dynamic Duo of Love and Laughter! This bonded pair of squatty, wiggly bully mixes were found together in mid-May and have been inseparable ever since. At around 2 years old, Tom and Jerry are the perfect blend of goofy charm and heartwarming companionship—and they’re ready to bring twice the love into a forever home. Tom is the more outgoing and confident of the two, always the first to say hello with a wagging tail and a big smile. He helps pave the way for Jerry, who’s a bit more reserved and leans on Tom for reassurance in new situations. Together, they’re the perfect balance—Tom the brave explorer and Jerry the loyal sidekick. They absolutely adore people, showering everyone they meet with kisses, tail wags, and full-body leans. Their playful energy and goofy antics are impossible to resist, and despite their low-to-the-ground builds, these boys are full of bounce and spirit. Tom and Jerry have been through a lot together and their bond has only grown stronger because of it. They’re not just best friends—they’re family, and they’re searching for a home where they can stay side by side, loved for exactly who they are. Ready to meet this unforgettable duo?
