Everyone, meet Ace! 🐾🤍

Our Stafford team recently sponsored Ace’s adoption at the Stafford SPCA, which means his adoption fee is paid! Our treatment coordinator, Chloe, got to spend some time with him, and we’re excited to help this sweet boy find a family of his own.

Ace is 3 years old, great with other dogs and kids, and full of energy. He loves walks, playtime, and every treat you offer him, but his tug-of-war toy is his favorite! 🎾

If you’ve been thinking about adding a dog to your family, we hope you’ll reach out to the Stafford SPCA and go meet Ace. We loved getting to know him, and we think you will, too.

Please share to help Ace find his people! 🐶🏡

ACE is an amazingly sweet boy, who needs room to run, romp, and play "keep away". He will require a standard @6 foot tall fenced yard, so he doesn't follow his nose to Caroline County chasing deer. His favorite thing in the world is playing with, and being with, his people.

# # # Sad Day. Dishwasher died # # #

At the Stafford SPCA, we wash an obscene amount of animal dishes daily. We also wash an equally obscene amount of laundry. When people upgrade their home appliances, we are always greatful to receive the "hand me downs".

Sadly, our most recent dishwasher went the way of the Dodo, and has washed its very last dish. Our last front loader H/E washing machine also died, so we are making due with an old top loader / central agitator (if you're not familiar with that type, ask Grandma). Not ideal for all the blankets and comforters that we wash (the pups are very comfortable here).

If anyone has an extra dishwasher laying around, that you planned to get rid of, or if you're getting ready to swap out for new, please consider our rescue for your old unit. If anyone has an extra front loading washer, in the same situation, we would be greatful for one of those as well.

Recommended drop off times are 10AM - 7PM. We can also arrange pickup (if there is room for a large pickup truck and tow behind trailer to get in).

Pic attached of our former dishwasher, and Grandma's washing machine (for those who enjoy nostalgia).

Thank you all in advance for spreading the word. Loading up dishes in my truck now, to take home and wash for the morning. Sigh.... The show must go on, and all of our kitties and pups do love their groceries.... They are very vocal and all want to "speak to the manager" if breakfast or dinner is late. - B

Family Located And On Their Way !!! McSteamy had a big adventure, and now he is heading home for a bath. Family was very happy to get their pup home safe and sound.

As I got home this evening, this sweet pup was waiting patiently at my front door. Smart dog. Got lost and went straight to the SPCA directors house for help. The pup has a chip. Waiting for 24Petwatch to answer their phones. If anyone recognizes this pup, please call me on my cell (571) 946-0931. Brooke area of Stafford, about 10 minutes East of the Stafford Courthouse.

According to the microchip, the pup's name is McSteamy. Adopted in Texas, most recently living in TN. Registered owner is Lea Rowe (if anyone recognizes that name). Animal Control is closed. There are no AC Officers available for pickup. I'm going to do my best to care for this sweet pup and hope he doesn't shred the bookkeepers office while I'm gone.

Please crosspost and share. I will update. - Bill

Sharing some love for our Sister Shelter !!

Just want to mention our mini husky girl is still searching for her family. If you have kids…she will be in absolutely HEAVEN!! Sable is every child’s friend and will run and play for hours if she could. She loves wrestling with other dogs , but can get a little rough with the smaller breeds (chihuahuas, terriers, etc.) She means no harm, she is still a puppy. Sable is great trained and she is doing very well wot housebreaking. If you’re looking for a husky, but want one that will stay a puppy size forever…check out Sable!! She is less than 20 pounds fully grown 🥹

She is a quick learner and very smart. She has lots of energy so keep that in mind when applying.

We have lots of availability to show her this weekend! Submit your application today and come see her ❤️

We are looking for a special German Shepherd puppy for an exceptional adopter. The Stafford SPCA has an experienced GSD dog owner looking for his next best friend. He has already been hit by FB scammers, and Amish puppy-mill pimps. He is looking for a young Shepherd Puppy. He would prefer to adopt through a rescue versus a breeder. Do any of our neighbors, fans, or fellow rescues have, or know of, a GSD puppy that needs a stable, loving home? Please reply here, or call / text (571) 946-0931. I promised my friend that I would help find him "the perfect pup". Pic for attention purposes only. - Thanks - Bill

Please read, crosspost and share. If you see Ranger, PLEASE don't chase / pursue. Please contact his Daddy [ Cloyd - (540) 386-7902] or Bill - SPCA (571) 946-0931.

About Ranger.

* His Birthday is August 27, 2024 (About 18 months old)
* He is a male Red Haired Golden Retriever with a light green collar as seen in the picture.
* He is chipped.
* He is up to date on shots
* He comes when his name is called, when there is food or a bag of food being opened, or when he sees other dogs and humans, especially playing fetch


° He is both human and animal friendly. He will, if he likes you, grab your hand gently with his mouth to bring you with him.
° He is not food aggressive but does like to share your food and will make you feel really bad with his eyes if you eat without sharing.
° He likes to play fetch with sticks, balls, frizbees and even ice balls
° He likes sticks and toys
° He will chew up an occasional woman’s sandle, but not furniture.
° Our workout routine in the morning when he hears the music listed below he gets excited and comes running to do our little dance in the gym. I know this sounds crazy, but I have rode around blasting it, because he will recognize it. 🎶
