Bolt has made a great recovery from his initial condition upon entering our care at the shelter. Good food, rest, and volunteers willing to spend time medicating and socializing him have brought him around to a beautiful boy who is learning trust and confidence. Bolt may have been injured after being hit by a car, but he is now feeling more flexible and less tender, and he enjoys walks with his new human friends. He gives gentle facial licks, and enjoys laying his head on a lap to show his appreciation. He is going to need a home soon! Are you ready to find love through Bolt?

When dogs are surrendered to the shelter, we listen to the people who bring them in, but we do our own assessments above and beyond, knowing that one or two bad experiences can be generalized by their owners. we were told that Walter, who is 10 years old, hated other dogs. We are so glad we gave him a chance because check him out now! He loves having a friend in his new adoptive home to keep him playful and happy! Thank you for adopting Walter!

At 2 years old and 55 pounds, this handsome boy is ready for a family.

He absolutely loves people and is happiest when he gets to be around them. He craves affection, and a few belly rubs or head scratches are enough to make his day.

Ox has been out on adventures, and he did great in the car. He was excited to meet everyone, which means he does need some work on his leash manners.
He is easily redirect with head scratches.

With patience, consistency, and a family willing to help him learn, we believe he has so much potential.

Ox is the kind of dog who could become your loyal family companion. The one who greets you at the door, follows you around, and just wants to be part of your life.

He's ready for a family of his own. Could that family be yours?

🐾 Apply to adopt Ox: https://www.friendsofcampbellcounty.org/info/adoption

Please share and help Ox find the people he's been waiting for!

Wiley’s great adventure:

“Just dropped Wiley back off. Wow, he did amazing. He ran around my yard, we went for a romp at the park and he walked so nicely; he was very precious and polite in my house. He chose Tyler immediately and asked to be let on the bed and then just cuddled so hard. He settled well, I was worried he was going to try to mark everywhere and he didn’t at all; he respected a gate boundary that he could have easily jumped or knocked over, even when Bear was sitting right on the other side acting sullen about being separated from her mama. I am really hoping someone will scoop him up soon. You could just tell how at peace/in his element he was laying around in a house and getting loved on!”

We would never know this about Wiley, the 75 pound long legged, big man, if a Volunteer had not taken the time to leash him up, organize her schedule in her home, and take him on a trial.

Now that we know what he’s like in a home, we can really push him for adoption! Apply here. https://www.friendsofcampbellcounty.org/info/adoption

Leo arrived as a stray, wearing a collar, and sporting a microchip. Unfortunately, the registration is not updated and we have not been able to reach his registered owner. We will dig a little deeper and contact the facility that inserted his microchip to see if we can find out where mom might be.

Leo appears to be house trained, but he is not neutered, and he does like to lift his leg to mark.

Although it appears he’s been recently groomed, his tummy fur is stained with the appearance of a belly band being used to control his marking. At 3 1/2 years old, even with a neuter which is required by Virginia code for all adoptions, it is possible he will always be a marker, and may never learn not to p*e inappropriately. We feel this is an important note for a prospective adopter to know upfront. Although he is adorable, when humans reach for him, he can be nippy and skittish, so we feel a home with no children will be best as he could easily be an escape artist and take off running again.

The microchip information lists him as a bichon frise mix. He was recently trimmed or clipped, but we don’t know if his family did it or if it was a professional groomer. We have no way of knowing where his origin might be, but we know he would like to get home!

If this is your dog, please call the shelter, 434-821-4416. He was found at the Timberlake minimart, near Arby’s on Timberlake Road.

Five year old Sybbie is a mini-Australian Shepherd mix whose family was not equipped to handle her high energy needs after two toddlers joined the family. Sybbie is in a foster home where her foster mom observed: “Sybbie wants to be your loyal companion. This high energy girl will fetch a tennis ball and drop it at your feet. She's learning to not try to attack cars that pass or the vaccuum. Her instincts to protect and herd moving objects away from her human jump in. Sybbie should not be with cats, as she is too rough when trying to corral them. But she enjoys playing with the other dogs in her foster home.” Apply to adopt here:
