(243)

Augusta Dog Adoptions (formerly Chains Hurt) was formed in 2006. We are an all volunteer, 501c3 rescue group that takes in and adopts out dogs that are transferred to our organization from local shelters and high-kill pounds throughout Virginia. Dogs are “fostered” by volunteers at their personal residences until an adoption match is made. We provide rehabilitation and veterinary care to all dogs

in our foster program prior to adoption. Augusta Dog Adoptions works closely with the Shenandoah Valley Animal Services Center, which gives us the opportunity to see firsthand where our services are most needed.

Remember Butterscotch? We picked him up a few months ago when his caregiver threatened to shoot him! It's been a long road to ready him for adoption but we made it! Butterscotch has been treated for bronchitis which has required 2 sets of xrays, three rounds of antibiotics, two rounds of bloodwork, treatment for hookworms, a neuter surgery and....the removal of 20 rotten teeth!

We have spent $1,275 to save Butterscotch! Smart?...maybe not. Regrets?...definitely not! This little old guy is the sweetest thing ever and he's thriving in his foster home! He is great with othly er dogs, uses the doggie door and thinks dog beds are the best things ever! After spending his life outside, he's so appreciative of every bit of love he gets! Butterscotch is ready to find a family to make his senior years truly golden!

A reduced adoption fee of $100 does apply for Butterscotch, our seniors, special medical and behavioral needs dogs and other "slow to adopt" dogs!

Augusta Dog Adoptions is an all- volunteer, foster- based rescue. We take applications online and schedule individual adoptions in the Waynesboro, VA. A $175.00 adoption fee ($300 for puppies under 6 months old) helps us take care of all the dogs we rescue. All dogs are spayed/neutered, tested for heartworm and tick borne diseases (if old enough), microchipped, and vaccinated for rabies (if old enough), distemper/parvo and bordetella. They are also treated for internal and external parasites. Many dogs also receive extensive medical care such as dental work and major surgeries.

Meet Luca, the newest addition to our rescue. This adorable 2-year-old husky may be on the small side, but he's got a personality that's larger than life. Not only is Luca well-behaved, but he's also a social butterfly who gets along great with other dogs. He's a pro at showering people with affection, and he's even crate-trained and learning basic commands. If you're a fellow husky lover, you'll fall head over heels for this charming little furball – and who can blame you?
