My story

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

If your type is 91 pounds of sweet and eager-to-please, then meet Postmates! This big boy wants nothing more than to play and get attention from his friends. He can take a few minutes to warm up to new people, but once he does, you`ll have a true blue friend. He`s a good listener, and will happily show off his `sit`, and how nicely he can take treats. He would love a home with a family who will continue to teach him new tricks. He seems to like other dogs, but doesn`t really know how to engage with them. He will need to work with a trainer, and maybe some calm friendly dogs, to help him learn doggy etiquette. If this rambunctious happy boy sounds like the perfect fit for your family, come on in and pay him a visit today!

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
