My story

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

Abe is an adorable little 9 week old guy. Very friendly and energetic. He loves running around and exploring. He and his sister come back to the foster when called. They are very playful with each other. Mom is a purebred German Shepherd who got out on her own and met up with a Hound. The Mom was a small German Shepherd but we have no idea of how big they will grow up to be. Right now they are just happy, healthy pups who just want to be with you and get attention.

Abe has been dewormed, and has received the first Distemper-Parvo combination vaccine. He will be microchipped prior to adoption

Since Abe is not yet neutered, he is not available for adoption outside of the counties contiguous to Bedford County. His adoption fee includes his neutering at one of our clinics associated with BHS. We ask you to sign a contract that you will have him neutered by six months and pay a deposit of $50 which you will get back when we get proof of neuter.

For more information, please call the Bedford Humane Society at 540-586-6100, or go to https://www.bhsva.org/adoptables to fill out an adoption application.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Have you discovered a pet you wish to adopt? Great!

Now, the first step is to complete an adoption application on our website at http://bhsva.org/adoptions-home.htm. This is not a commitment to adopt. It is simply the first step in the process.

We will review your application for preliminary approval before asking the foster parent to contact you to set up a time to meet the pet. You may also have concerns about how the animal will fit your home environment. When the foster parent contacts you, you will be able to discuss your concerns with someone who has first-hand experience with the pet.

After you meet the animal, you and the foster parent can decide if this is definitely the forever pet for you.

Go meet their pets

Until we are able to build our No-Kill Shelter, our adoptable pets live in foster homes throughout Bedford County and surrounding areas. If you are interested in meeting a pet, please submit an adoption application or contact our main office.

We also hold adoption events throughout the county. Visit our website or our Facebook page for dates and times. If you would like to be added to our monthly events email list, please send a request to info@bhsva.org.

More about this rescue

The Bedford Humane Society is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 1994 and dedicated to eliminating the overpopulation of cats and dogs in Bedford County, VA through education, spay/neuter programs, and companion animal adoptions. We are NOT the tax-funded Bedford County shelter on Falling Creek Road, although we do try to help the animals there whenever possible. Our adoptable pets live in volunteer foster homes where they receive the care and attention they deserve while awaiting a permanent home.

Our various programs for Bedford County and City of Bedford residents include::

•A low cost spay/neuter program for area pets
•The construction of a no kill animal shelter, The Vernon D Lybolt Adoption Center, at 829 Ole Turnpike Road in Bedford.
•Find homes for abandoned and homeless animals through our adoption and transport programs.
•Help pet owners with unexpected expenses involving their pets, through our Emergency Fund program.
•Provide humane traps and spay/neuter subsidies for feral cats through our Forgotten Felines program.
