My story

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

>>FEES SPONSORED<

Smart, high-energy and affectionate? Meet Brian - he's such a good boi!

Brian is only 10 months old, but has officially spent HALF HIS LIFE at the shelter. :( The side effects are that he's got some pent up energy and needs some patient socialization.

At adoption events, he's been SO good, though! To our knowledge and observations, Brian has had no previous training. Within 5 minutes of impromptu training from a volunteer, Brian was already sitting obediently and listening very attentively! He's a smart cookie!

Brian appears to get along with most other K9's with occasional exceptions, but meet & greets are still required with any household members, K9 or not. Brian is scared of aggressive cats, but hasn't pursued. Towards friendly cats, he wags his tail and expresses calm interest. He will likely be good with kids 8+, but we are not certain as of now since his interactions have been minimal.

This young loves pup to be out and about and also LOVES learning! Inside, he's pretty content to chill on his own with a few toys to play quietly and sniff around. He loves his pets and affection, too!

This guy has so much potential, it's absurd! Let's get this PUPPY out of here!!!

More about this shelter

Shenandoah Valley Animal Services Center is an open admissions animal shelter and is home to dozens of animals looking for their forever homes. We are a Municipal pound for Augusta County, Staunton, and Waynesboro so we take in all strays, abandoned animals, and owner surrenders. We have 40 dog runs and about 85 cat cages.

The Shenandoah Valley Animal Services Center began operation in September of 2011. Since opening, we have successfully lowered the euthanasia rates for our community! Our shelter's current save rate is 95 percent, which is the direct result of our dedicated staff and volunteers working hard to finding these animals their forever homes. Please call the shelter with any questions regarding animals found on the website for more information.

We offer help to our community through education and assistance. With the help of other organizations we are able to spay/neuter animals in our community that the owners could otherwise not afford. With the help of our community we are on a mission to save every adoptable animal in our area.
