My story

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

Location: Norton, VA

Octavia is a very friendly, ✨️SPAYED✨️ 3.5 year old mixed breed, who was surrendered to the Wise County Shelter, due to no fault of her own!

She is on the shorter, 'stockier' side but she weighs approximately 60lbs. Octavia is beyond her puppy stage and just wants a human to relax with. She has a very laid back personality and loves to join her humans for a car ride! Octavia is a couch potato, aside from her potty time zoomies.

We believe she will THRIVE as the only pet in her new home, although she has not shown aggression towards any other dogs.
