My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Thank you for your interest in adopting from Portsmouth Humane! This pet is available for foster AND adoption! If you have questions about a pet’s behavior such as their interactions with other animals or children, our Animal Care Team (ACT) can help. The ACT will be happy to make recommendations to your family based on our experience and our pets’ preferences. If you are interested in one of our pets, please make an appointment to meet them so our ACT can provide you with personality information, as well as recommendations based on your family’s needs, and, for those adopting a dog, schedule a meet and greet if you have a dog in the home. Ready to foster? Call or text 757-414-6178.
