My story

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

Looking to add some extra flavor in your life? Try Ham! This affectionate 60lb boy does best in homes with older kids and adults who can respect his space and nap schedule. Ham has a big appetite—not just for food, but for love and companionship! He enjoys getting butt scratches and cuddling up with his humans and stuffed animals. He is a bit unsure about other pups, so we recommend bringing any pups from home to meet him and make sure their play styles match. If you`re looking for a loyal buddy who will add joy and a bit of fun to your life, Ham is the perfect match!

This pet is eligible for an Adoption Audition! What is an Adoption Audition? It’s a 5-day, no-strings-attached, trial adoption period. You can take this pet home to try it out! Interested? Come to the shelter any time during open hours and talk to one of our Customer Care staff!

Be sure to check the `shelter information` box on the listing to see if the pet is located at our Fairfax Campus (4500 West Ox Road, Fairfax) or our Lorton Campus (8875 Lorton Road, Lorton). Then, come in during our open hours! Both of our locations are open Tuesdays and Wednesdays 12-5 p.m., Thursdays and Fridays 12-7 p.m., and Saturdays and Sundays 11 a.m.-5 p.m. For more information on our adoption process, including requirements and fees, visit: www.fairfaxcounty.gov/animalshelter/adopt
