My story

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

Please pick our Daisy!
She is one of the most affectionate, devoted dogs I've ever met... which makes the fact that this is her third time at our shelter even more heartbreaking!
In 2021, pups Daisy and Millie were surrendered by their family for "fighting with the cat."
They were adopted together, but Daisy was returned in 2022 for fighting with Millie. Daisy ADORES humans, but living with other dogs stresses her out.
Daisy doesn't pull at the leash or try to pursue other dogs -- at the shelter, she peacefully walks and lives side-by-side with them. She just can't share a house or be off-leash with other pets.
During her second stay at the shelter, we learned that sweet Daisy is terrified of small children! She doesn't target them, but if they approach her, she cowers and barks.
In 2022, Daisy was adopted again! She was a loyal and loving companion (a little needy -- she wants her people close... no, closer!), and life was good... until the couple moved to be near family.
Suddenly, Daisy found herself surrounded by small children and in off-leash encounters with other dogs. Daisy was overwhelmed. She and a dog fought, the kids were scared, and now Daisy is back.
Daisy is only 5-years-old, and she's already suffered so much loss - she lost three families! But Daisy hasn't lost hope. She hasn't lost her incredible love for people, her endearing wiggles, or her desire to learn and please! We were so sad when Daisy was returned... and she's been doing her best to cheer us up with kisses and cuddles and play!
Please come pick our Daisy -- be the sunshine she needs to thrive, and she will brighten your world!
Ok, just to be clear - Daisy needs a home with no other pets (cats or dogs), and no children under 12.
Animal Aid Society, 80 Butler Farm Road, Hampton VA 23693 - Open every day between 9AM and 12 Noon.
Interested? Come for a visit any day of the week - 365 days a year between 9am - 12pm. Hope to see you soon!

Additional adoption info

If all goes well and you decide to pursue adoption, you will be asked to complete a pre-adopt. Once your family, including any dogs, have also met with the dog you wish to adopt, your application will be submitted to the Adoption Committee for review. 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.

Dogs qualify as a senior based on their stature/weight and age. The scale below shows the age at which a dog attains “senior” designation:

0-20 lbs: 11 years
21-50: 10 years
51-90: 8 years
91+: 7 years
