Story
One moment, he's relaxing sunbathing in front of a window. The next he's playing with his toys hyping himself up. Trunks is a energetic and overly friendly dog. I loves cuddles, back rubs, and running around outside. Trunks has been fairly good around other pets. He's not aggressive, or dangerous. Depending on the size of the dog, also depends on how he'll interact along with them. He's spent nearly a year with a small chihuahua, and a few weeks with a pit, a little bigger than him. He's spent small amount of time with small kids; however, he's never been aggressive with them. May need small interactions with them. A home with a nice yard would be perfect, but he'll thrive in a normal apartment as well. Trunks has basic training. He's house and crate trained, and knows sit and to stay out the kitchen. He knows not to jump on beds, despite his attempts as I'm laying down. While on the leash, he does pull. I haven't taken the time to fully leash training him.

Story
**COURTESY POST**-- Contact kfour25@gmail.com to learn more. Sheba's original owner passed away from cancer. A kind friend of the owner has been caring for Sheba in her home. There are other dogs in this home. Sheba prefers to be an ONLY dog so this has presented a bit of shuffling in the home. To keep the dogs separated, they have to rotate the dogs out of their crates. Sheba would love to have a permanent home where she wouldn't have to be shuffled about. She loves people. She is spayed, up to date on all vaccinations, on heartworm and flea preventative and is in tiptop shape. Could you be the guardian angel that Sheba has been waiting for? Please contact kfour25@gmail.com to meet Sheba and her foster Mom or have any questions answered.Interested? Come for a visit any day of the week - 365 days a year between 9am - 12pm. Hope to see you soon!PLEASE NOTE: Animal Aid Society observes a 40 mile adoption radius to facilitate post adoption support and follow ups.

Story
Hi, I’m Pringle—a 4-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier with a stunning blue brindle and white coat and a heart that’s even more beautiful. I weigh 58 pounds, but don’t tell me that—I’m absolutely convinced I’m a lapdog. If you’ve got a couch, a blanket, and a little space in your lap, I’ll be right there soaking up every ounce of love you’ve got to give. I’m spayed, vaccinated, heartworm positive (currently undergoing treatment), and fully house, crate, and leash trained. I walk well on a leash, though I might pull a bit if I’m walking with other dogs or something exciting catches my eye. I’m potty trained, gentle with kids, friendly with dogs, and I adore cats. And when it’s time to play? I’m all about the dog toys—bring on the squeakers, stuffies, and chewies. I’ve got a moderate energy level that makes me the perfect balance of chill and playful. I love lounging around indoors, soaking up the calm, but when I’m outside, I perk up and enjoy the fresh air and movement—though right now, I’m taking it easy while I go through heartworm treatment. Keeping things mellow is important for my recovery, but once I’m cleared, I’ll be ready for more adventures. I’m loyal, loving, and happiest when I’m close to my people. I’ll settle in wherever you are, including at bedtime, and I’m just as content watching the world go by as I am snuggling up for a nap. I’m smart, eager to please, and the kind of companion who’ll stick by your side through thick and thin. I’m currently being fostered in Christiansburg, VA, but I can be transported out of state for the right home (transport fees may apply depending on distance and volunteer availability). If you’re looking for a soulful, snuggly best friend who’ll love you with everything she’s got, I’m ready to curl up beside you and never let go.

Story
MERCEDES - 10+ years old, 45 pounds, house trained, crate trained, friendly, moderate energy   Mercedes is a sweet senior girl looking for a calm, cuddly retirement home.    She was adopted from us a long time ago but has found her way back after her most recent owners had to surrender her due to apartment restrictions.    She is house trained and loves going for walks.   Mercedes has moderate energy so running and playing last only so long. I was happy to see some of that energy when we were together. She ran around the yard jubilantly as if she were a puppy.   Her smile made me smile and it will do the same to you!  Oh, and she was perfect on the leash, too!   Mercedes prefers older kids as she is known to tolerate children along with other dogs and cats. Slow and proper introductions are important for her.   She is crate trained along with being house trained.   Come on in to meet this pretty grey muzzle girl! Bring in any resident dog for a meet and greet and please be ready to supervise.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.August 17, 2025, 9:39 am

Story
DAISY MAE - 1 year old, 54 pounds, house trained,  Daisy is still a puppy at barely a year old and surrendered when her owner could no longer care for her.  She has tons of energy and is very playful.  She loves all kinds of toys, balls, squeaky, plush & tug. Although we are told she is good with children, we are recommending an adult only home as she can be rough with kids and has a tendency to guard high value items. She likes other dogs but does play very rough and will guard items from them. Daisy was barky at first but then out in the yard, she loved running and running and running, chasing tennis balls, stopping for treats and then running and chasing some more. Daisy Mae is looking for a very active family who will provide plenty of exercise, playtime and training to help curb some of her guarding issues. She is a hoot and in the right home, she will thrive. Daisy Mae is currently in our medium dog adoption kennel so just ask to meet her!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 21, 2025, 10:54 am

Story
BOLT - 3 years old, 60 pounds, house trained, good with kids, dog selective, no cats Bolt is a young, handsome, large mixed breed boy. His black thick fur is soft. He has pretty amber eyes and along with white on his chest, he has a touch of white on a couple of his paws. Arriving bc his owner was in the military and had no one else to care for him, Bolt is nervous behind the cage bars. He stares and backs away. Once outside, however, he is a fun and friendly boy. He came right up to me, sniffed and licked my hand. So silly! It took him a few minutes to get used to the other dogs in playgroup. He let them know when they were too much for him.  *We vet our playgroup dogs so they all listened to him and backed away when he corrected them. After a short time, he was initiating chasing play with others. *We are recommending Bolt be an only pet. He has been known to get into trouble if left unattended so crate training is a good idea as he will steal food from counter tops and chew up paper. Bolt loves to play with toys including balls and tough toys. He will rip up stuffed ones. Bolt is currently in a back kennel so if you come in and don't see him, please just ask!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.June 19, 2025, 3:03 pm
