Meet Ms Sara Bellum!
- Despite her age, she is full of energy and loves to play.
- She absolutely loves people and meeting new friends.
- Gets along well with other dogs, especially those okay with her playful roughhousing.
- Cat-Friendly: Sara is good with cats and tries to be gentle around them.
- She's incredibly affectionate and loves to be by your side.
- Enjoys being outside and walks well on a harness.
- Has excellent house manners.
- May whine for a few minutes in the crate but settles down quickly.
- She has a soft spot for plushies.
- Gets sad if told no-she's the biggest baby.

What breed am I? Mixed mutt! ODHS does not breed label (unless there's official paperwork), as studies show it is nearly impossible to tell the exact breed of each dog based off of their appearance.

Adoption Donations are $275 for an adult, $375 for puppies (a dog under one year of age), and $175 for a senior dog (based on the age of the dog). More "sought out breeds may have a higher adoption donation) Adoption donations are to be made via cash, or credit/debit card. There is a $5 fee to run cards. We do not accept checks for adoption fees.


Please remember to bring a martingale collar and leash (non-retractable) with you the day of the adoption.

We typically have adoption events on Wednesdays 5-7pm, Fridays 6-8pm, and 11 to 3pm. Our adoption center is located at 3602 Lafayette Blvd, Suite 101, Fredericksburg, VA 22408. It's important that you keep an eye on your emails for any changes or updates during the adoption process.
