Meet Gaia!
This sweet girl is around 9 years old, and she is looking for a home to call her own! She sure does not act her age and still loves to run around, play and can't forget cuddles. She is super sweet and loves everyone she meets. She would prefer a home without any pets; she does well with them in passing she just does not want to share her space. Gaia loves to please her people and just wants love. If interested in Gaia, you can call the shelter at 804-520-9397 ext.5

Meet Chloe!
Just one look into her eyes and you will fall in love! Chloe is around 6/7 years old, and she is looking for her new furever home. She loves absolutely everyone from kids to adults. Meet and greets are required if you have another dog in the home. She did use to live with another dog, but she has not loved the dogs we have here at the shelter. She would also prefer a home without any cats. She does have some hip issues from getting hit by a car when she was younger, but she does not let it bother her too much and still loves to prance. If interested in Chloe, you can call the shelter at 804-520-9397 ext.5!

Pixie has left the building!!
Pixie was adopted by a previous adopter who adopted Jax from us about a year ago! This was definitely a match made in heaven and we are so thankful for the couple because we know how patient they are. We can’t wait to see how she blossoms now that she is in a home with people she can trust and will love her deeply!
