My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Tripod love! This pretty senior named HOLLEY is in need of a new home, and she told her family she would really like to be a one and only, so she can get ALL the love. She was adopted from a shelter in our area just three years ago, and has adapted well to being a beloved family pet. Here is what her human has to say:

*She is spayed

*She is microchipped

*She will be 9 next month around the 13/15th unsure exact date

She good with kids

*Not good with cats or smaller animals

*She good with dogs most of the time but would prefer to be only dog. The human notes, "She had a bad up bringing and can get triggered. I've only adopted her three years ago. She has had two incidents in my home with no signs of it happening. I would love to find her a home where is could be controlled if there is more dogs or by herself. We feel her past was breeder since she has had multiple litters. Possible fighter or bait dog. Not sure. She has only three legs. She is a sweet heart but if a dog snaps wrong in play it can trigger her."

(Note: Because of her issues, no one can guarantee that she will be a highly adaptable dog for homes that are not experienced with redirecting and correcting if necessary, but we hope that perfect home can be found.)

If tripods are your "thing," and you have a quiet lifestyle, perhaps this will work for you! Apply here and we will send to her family for consideration.

Additional adoption info

We start with an application so our volunteers and fosters can have an idea of what the adopter is seeking. We ask that other pets in the home be spayed/neutered already if of appropriate age, current with rabies shots, and prefer use of heartworm preventive. We ask for a non-family personal reference as well as a vet reference to contact. We do home visits only if we feel it is vital to the pet's successful placement.

Applications are generally processed within 24 to 48 hours. Foster parents will contact the applicants to advise them of the progress of their application and to set up a meet and greet. Because volunteers work full-time jobs, contact is often made by email.

Fees to adopt range from $20 to $80 for cats, and from $75 to $300 for dogs. A contract requires that the adopter contact FOAC and return the pet to our care at any time if the adoption does not work out.

Go meet their pets

FOAC vaccinates and deworms the dogs and cats at the Campbell County Shelter, which is open to the public from 12 to 5 weekdays and 11 to 4 on Saturdays. That address is 322 Dennis Riddle Drive, Rustburg, VA (behind Yellow Branch Elementary School.)

Available by appointment for visits are the dogs and cats noted as being in "foster care." We also visit Petsmart in Lynchburg, VA, with our adoptable dogs and cats at various times.

More about this rescue

Established in 2011. FOAC filled the vacancy left by the local humane society when they ended their association with Campbell County Animal Control. FOAC became its own entity in 2012 and has grown to 300 volunteers. We work in partnership with Campbell County Animal Control, and as their guests at the shelter. We do not have our own shelter nor overhead expenses, and no paid employees.
