My story

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

It breaks our hearts when a dog gets a taste of the good life and then finds himself back at the shelter.
Yoyo was returned because he kept escaping from his backyard. He likes the taste of wood, and would break off pieces of fence, creating Yoyo-sized gaps. 
Then, he'd wander around the cul de sac looking for people to greet.
He loves people.
In the home, Yoyo was crate-trained, house-trained, terrific with his canine buddy, Baloo, and absolutely in love with his little girl -- a tiny human toddler.
Yoyo is a fabulous family dog, and he misses his family desperately.
Yoyo is an escape artist -- he needs constant supervision outside (or a home with NO yard, where he's only leash-walked). He loves to chew things, but he also likes his crate, and we'll give you one of those!  
Please come meet Yoyo -- he hasn't been himself since he was returned.
The real Yoyo is a joyful, affectionate, bouncy goof. We need your help getting him there again.
Yoyo would love to see you any day between 9am and noon, including weekends and holidays. He's waiting at Animal Aid Society, 80 Butler Farm Road, Hampton, VA.
Interested? Come for a visit any day of the week - 365 days a year between 9am - 12pm. Hope to see you soon!

PLEASE NOTE: Animal Aid Society observes a 40 mile adoption radius to facilitate post adoption support and follow ups.

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
