Admiral's Advocacy

Animal rescue in Herndon, VA

Admiral's Advocacy is a support organization that was formed for two reasons:

1. To provide enrichment items for animals in shelters that don't have the budget to purchase them.

2. To offer support and guidance to pet parents who don't know who else to ask.

Our goal in supporting pet owners is for you to be able to keep your pet. On our website you can find resources such as behavior counseling referrals, restriction free housing, lower cost vets, and restriction free insurance companies. As a last resort, we will assist with rehoming your pet, if we are unable to come up with a solution to your problem that requires you to give him or her up.

Additional adoption info

Admiral's Advocacy is not a rescue, but rather a support organization. Pet parents who can no longer keep their pets, for the most part, do not want to surrender them to a shelter, but are not able to find a rescue that has space to take their animal in. We want to close that gap and assist with rehoming. Your pet remains yours, and lives with you, until a new home is found. Using the Adopt-a-Pet rehoming platform, we will offer guidance, and a shoulder to lean on, so that the rehoming process goes smoothly for you, your pet, and their new owners. Our organization is a judgement free zone, and you will be met with compassion and understanding. We know you want the best for your pet, and we want to make sure the outcome is what you want it to be.

In order to participate in our program, your pet must be spay/neutered and up to date on vaccines. If your pet is not altered, or is not UTD, we can refer you to a lower cost vet who can provide those services for a reasonable price.
