I'm an adult with a job and a mortgage, yet the other day I snatched a food bowl away from a fellow volunteer and shouted, "mine!" It was Mika's food bowl, and I had been looking forward to feeding him all morning! NOBODY greets you like Mika -- He spins! He makes joyful chatterbox sounds! He rubs his soft self against you and looks at you like you hung the stars and moon! You don't have to bring him food -- Mika's overjoyed to see you no matter what -- but it's nice to have something tasty to give him after he puts on such a show for you. Mika is a 2-year-old Border Collie Mix -- healthy, affectionate, smart, joyful and loyal! He immediately connects with you -- talk to him, and he really seems to be listening! Mika was a FABULOUS dog in a home (housetrained with excellent manners), but Mika made it his mission to herd and "protect" his family's four-year-old human, and that put everyone, including Mika, on edge. So, in order to relax and be the happiest, calmest Mika he can be, we're looking for a home with no young children. Mika would also prefer a home without other pets -- this way, he can enjoy life instead of constantly working to organize and manage everything! If you want a constant companion who's eager to learn and please, who loves to play and cuddle, and who'd enjoy long hikes and neighborhood strolls, then you want Mika! Come meet Mika, and you'll understand why I almost ruined a friendship with a fabulous volunteer in order to feed him (yes -- I apologized later. But I'd do it again.). We're open every day from 9am to noon (including weekends and holidays. Animal Aid Society is located at 80 Butler Farm Road, Hampton, VA, 23666. Interested? Come for a visit any day of the week - 365 days a year between 9am - 12pm. Hope to see you soon!
PLEASE NOTE: Animal Aid Society observes a 40 mile adoption radius to facilitate post adoption support and follow ups.

We estimate the pre-adoption process can take up to 14 days or longer.
Please note: AAS is committed to finding the best fit for each of our dogs. For this reason, we will accept multiple applications for a dog. In the case of multiple applications, we will select the applicant that is the best fit based on the needs of the dog.
Adoption fee for puppy/adult dogs is $300.00.
Adoption fee for senior dogs is $150.00.
