My story

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

Xena is an energetic lady looking for her forever home. Her previous circumstances unfortunately didn't end well when her owner had to move and couldn't take her with him.

Xena has lived with young kids before (previous owner said she LOVES them). - This girl can run and run! Xena is a great family dog and doesn't have a mean bone in her body! In her basic command arsenal, she knows "sit," "come," "down," "no" and "quiet." House- and crate-trained? Check! Observations show that she wasn't socialized with other dogs, so she needs to be the only pet. No other dogs & NO CATS.

Call the shelter to set up a meet & greet!

More about this shelter

Shenandoah Valley Animal Services Center is an open admissions animal shelter and is home to dozens of animals looking for their forever homes. We are a Municipal pound for Augusta County, Staunton, and Waynesboro so we take in all strays, abandoned animals, and owner surrenders. We have 40 dog runs and about 85 cat cages.

The Shenandoah Valley Animal Services Center began operation in September of 2011. Since opening, we have successfully lowered the euthanasia rates for our community! Our shelter's current save rate is 95 percent, which is the direct result of our dedicated staff and volunteers working hard to finding these animals their forever homes. Please call the shelter with any questions regarding animals found on the website for more information.

We offer help to our community through education and assistance. With the help of other organizations we are able to spay/neuter animals in our community that the owners could otherwise not afford. With the help of our community we are on a mission to save every adoptable animal in our area.
